Ammonium Chloride → HCID 67040739, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

The product of Example 93C (517 mg, 0.936 mmol), iron powder (322 mg, 5.76 mmol), and ammonium chloride (328 mg, 6.13 mmol) in water (3 mL) and ethanol (6 mL) were heated at 90° for 30 minutes. The hot reaction mixture was vacuum filtered and the residue washed with methanol and ethyl acetate. The filtrate was concentrated by rotary evaporation under vacuum, the residue partitioned with water (50 mL) and ethyl acetate (100 mL), and the organic phase washed with water (2×50 mL) and brine (50 mL). The organic phase was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated by rotary evaporation under vacuum to provide the title compound as an off-white foam (325 mg, 66%).
