Participants

Reaction Steps

A stirred solution of 5-nitro-2-(4-pyridylsulfonyl)anisole (3.00 g, 10.2 mmol) and stannous chloride dehydrate (11.49 g, 51.0 mmol) in absolute ethanol (35 mL) was heated at reflux for 1 hour. The reaction mixture was poured into ice water, and the aqueous solution basified with 15% NaOH and extracted with ethyl acetate (2×200 mL). The combined organic portions were dried (MgSO4) and the solvent removed in vacuo to yield the title benzeneamine as a pale yellow solid (2.23 g, 83%); mp 150°-152° C. 1H--NMR (250 MHz, d6--DMSO): 3.62 (s, 3H, OCH3) 6.18 (d, 1H, J=1.8 Hz, aromatic) 6.24 (d, 1H, J=1.9 Hz, aromatic) 6.28 (s, 2H, NH2) 7.58 (d, 1H, J=8.8 Hz, aromatic) 7.70 (dd, 2H, J=4.5, 1.5 Hz, aromatic) 8.79 (dd, 2H, J=4.4, 1.6 Hz, aromatic). MS (CI, CH4): 265 (M+1).
