Procedure
600 mL of methanol and 24 mL water were added to a 3-neck 2 L round bottom flask. Nitrogen was bubbled directly into the solution. Palladium on carbon was added (10%, 10.35 g, 9.73 mmol) while bubbling continued. Next, N2-(m-tolyl)pyridine-2,3-diamine (19.38 g, 97 mmol) and formaldehyde (37%, 14.48 mL, 195 mmol) were added. The reaction mixture was stirred under nitrogen for 3 h. Next, nitrogen was bubbled into the solution and ammonium formate (123 g, 1945 mmol) was added slowly. The reaction mixture was stirred under nitrogen overnight at room temperature. The reaction mixture was filtered through Celite® and the Celite® was washed with dichloromethane. The filtrate was washed with water twice, and the organic layer was dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered, and evaporated. The residue was purified using column chromatography eluting with 30% ethyl acetate/hexanes to isolate the desired product. The product was combined with material from other reactions and purified by column chromatography eluting with 30% ethyl acetate/hexanes. A dark reddish-brown solid was obtained. The solid was recrystallized from boiling hexanes with a small amount of ethyl acetate to dissolve the solid. The product was filtered off as needles with some reddish color which were washed with hexanes, obtained 15.1 g.
