2-nitro-5-(piperidin-1-yl)-N-(1-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-1H-imidazol-4-yl)benzamide → 2-amino-5-(piperidin-1-yl)-N-(1-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-1H-imidazol-4-yl)benzamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

Into a 100-mL round-bottom flask, was placed a solution of 2-nitro-5-(piperidin-1-yl)-N-(1-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-1H-imidazol-4-yl)benzamide (600 mg, 1.11 mmol, 1.00 equiv, 85%) in methanol/dichloromethane (10/5 mL). The mixture was treated with Pd/C (600 mg) and stirred under an atmosphere of hydrogen overnight at room temperature. The solids were filtered out. The resulting mixture was concentrated under vacuum to give 450 mg (85%) of product as a brown solid.
