Reaction Steps

The target compound was obtained by reducing 2-bromo-6-nitrobenzoic acid with iron in a mixed solvent of methanol and ammonium chloride aqueous solution. 2-bromo-6-nitrobenzoic acid was manufactured by the method described in the literature (J. Chem. Soc. Perkin Trans. 1, 1991, p. 1565) using 2-bromo-6-nitrotoluene as starting material.
