Procedure

4-Amino 3-nitro-benzonitrile (5.0 g, 0.03 moles) was dissolved in ethyl acetate then treated with 2.5 g of 10% Pd/C. The reaction mixture was flushed with hydrogen and allowed to stir overnight at 23° C. The reaction was not quite complete so 0.5 g more 10% Pd/C was added. After 2 hours the reaction was complete. The solution was filtered through celite, concentrated and used without further purification (4.67 g).
