Procedure

2-Chloro-4-fluoro-5-nitrophenol (85 g, 0.45 mol) and 10% Pd/C (25 g, 0.023 mol) were combined in EtOH and hydrogenated (50 psi) for 12 h. The reaction mixture was filtered. The filtrate was concentrated in vacuo and purified by silica gel chromatography to provide 3-amino-4-fluorophenol (40 g 70% yield). 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6): δ 8.87 (s, 1H), 6.70 (dd, J=11.2, 8.8 Hz, 1H), 6.14 (dd, J=7.8, 2.4 Hz, 1H), 5.84 (m, 1H), 4.92 (s, 2H); MS (ESI) m/z: 128.2 (M+H+).
