1-Boc-4-(4-Nitrophenyl)piperazine → tert-Butyl 4-(4-aminophenyl)piperazine-1-carboxylate

Participants

Reaction Steps

A suspension of 4-(4-nitro-phenyl)-piperazine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (Step 8.3) (1.26 g, 4.1 mmol) and palladium on carbon (200 mg) in MeOH (30 mL) was stirred for 30 min at rt, under a hydrogen atmosphere. The reaction mixture was filtered through a pad of celite and concentrated to afford 1.1 g of the title compound as a pink solid: ESI-MS: 278.2 [M+H]+; tR=2.85 min (System 1).
