4-Nitro-3-trifluoromethyl-phenoxyethyl acetate → 4-Amino-3-trifluoromethyl-phenoxyethyl acetate

Participants

Reaction Steps

In the ethyl acetate (30 mL) solution of 4-nitro-3-trifluoromethyl-phenoxyethyl acetate (3.24 g (theoretical amount: 2.83 g, 9.66 mmol) which had been obtained in 1), 10% palladium carbon (0.3 g) was added and hydrogen was added. After the catalyst had been separated by filtration, the solvent was removed by distillation under reduced pressure and crude 4-amino-3-trifluoromethyl-phenoxyethyl acetate (BB03, 3.08 g (theoretical amount: 2.54 g) 100%) was obtained as oily matter.
