M-Phenylenediamine → M-Phenylenediamine

Participants

Reaction Steps

The reaction described in Example 1 was repeated except a 5% palladium on barium carbonate catalyst was used for the m-phenylenediamine hydrogenation resulting in a 70% GC yield of the acetate salt of 3-amino-2-cyclohexene-1-imine and 29% m-phenylenediamine remaining. On hydrolysis, a 62% isolated yield of 3-amino-2-cyclohexene-1-one was obtained.
