Reaction Steps

To a solution of (1S)-2-(2-chloro-5-fluorophenyl)-1-methylethyl azide (1.10 g, 5.15 mmol) in 100 mL of EtOAc was added Pd/C (300 mg of 10% Pd) and the mixture was hydrogenated under hydrogen balloon for 30 min. The catalyst was removed by filtration through celite, then passed through silica gel plug eluting first with EtOAc (40 mL), then MeOH/EtOAc/NH4OH 20:75:5 (120 mL). The fraction with product was evaporated to give (1S)-2-(2-chloro-5-fluorophenyl)-1-methylethylamine (721 mg, 67%) as pale yellow oil. ESI-MS: m/z (MH+) 188.3. 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3): δ 7.30 (m, 1H), 6.86-6.97 (m, 2H), 3.26 (m, 1H), 2.66-2.84 (m, 2H), 1.40 (s, 2H), 1.15 (d, J=6.42 Hz, 3H).
