Reaction Steps

A flask containing 10% Pd/C (4 mg) was evacuated and placed under a N2 atmosphere and suspended in ethanol (2 mL). To this was added 5-cyclopentyl-4-hydroxy-2-nitrobenzonitrile (42 mg, 0.18 mmol) as a solution in ethanol (1.5 mL). The reaction was stirred under H2 atmosphere for 2 h, then filtered and concentrated in vacuo to provide 2-amino-5-cyclopentyl-4-hydroxybenzonitrile as a yellow oil (36 mg, quantitative yield). LC/MS m/z 203.1 [M+H]+.
