Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of ammonium chloride 58.8 mg in H2O 0.5 ml was added iron powder 368 mg and EtOH 2 ml. The reaction mixture was warmed in oil bath, and a solution of 2-{4-[1-(4-nitrophenyl)-3-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazol-5-yl]phenyl}ethyl acetate 460.7 mg in EtOH 3 ml was added. After being refluxed for 3 hours, the reaction mixture was cooled to ambient temperature and unsoluble matter was removed by filtration. The filtrate was concentrated in vacuo. The residue was dissolved in AcOEt, and washed with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution and saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution, dried over magnesium sulfate, and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was recrystallized from IPE to give 2-{4-[1-(4-aminophenyl)-3-(trifluoro-methyl)-1H-pyrazol-5-yl]phenyl}ethyl acetate 182.3 mg as a powder.
