Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of benzyl 2-[2-[(3-phenylpropanoyl)amino]isonicotinoyl]hydrazinecarboxylate (1.10 g, 2.63 mmol), 10% palladium on carbon (50 mg), methanol (20 mL) and tetrahydrofuran (20 mL) was stirred under a hydrogen atmosphere at room temperature 18 hr. The reaction mixture was filtered, and the filtrate was concentrated to give the title compound (748 mg, yield 100%) as colorless crystals.
