1-(2-(4-Fluorophenyl)acetyl)-3-(4-nitrophenyl)urea → 1-(4-Aminophenyl)-3-(2-(4-fluorophenyl)acetyl)urea

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 1-(2-(4-fluorophenyl)acetyl)-3-(4-nitrophenyl)urea (200 mg, 0.63 mmol) in ethyl acetate (10 mL) was added 10% palladium on carbon (15 mg) and the flask was filled with hydrogen using a balloon. The mixture was stirred for 18 h, filtered and the catalyst was washed with ethyl acetate. The filtrate was concentrated in vacuo to give a solid which was was triturated with small amount of ether and dried in vacuo to obtain the desired compound (180 mg) as pale yellow solid. MS(ESI+) m/z 287.4 (M+H)+.
