Procedure
A mixture of 6-[3-cyclopentyl-2-(4-nitro-phenyl)-propionylamino]-nicotinic acid methyl ester (300 mg, 0.75 mmol) in ethyl acetate (30 mL) was treated with a catalytic amount of 10% palladium on activated carbon (30 mg). The resulting mixture was shaken at 25° C. under 60 psi of hydrogen gas in a Parr apparatus for 24 h. At this time, the catalyst was removed by filtration through a plug of celite. The filtrate was concentrated in vacuo to afford 6-[2-(4-amino-phenyl)-3-cyclopentyl-propionylamino]-nicotinic acid methyl ester (262.8 mg, 94.7%) as a pale yellow glass: EI-HRMS m/e calcd for C21H25N3O3 (M+) 367.1895, found 367.1899.
