Dimethyl 2-(5-methoxy-2-nitrophenyl)malonate → HCID 68981613, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To 2-(5-methoxy-2-nitro-phenyl)-malonic acid dimethyl ester and 5% Pd—C (7.0 g) in 1 l of flask, MeOH (490 ml) is added at ambient temperature. The reaction mixture is stirred under H2 at room temperature for 15 h. The catalysts are removed by filtration and MeOH is evaporated down to give crude 5-methoxy-2-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-indole-3-carboxylic acid methyl ester.
