反应详情

A mixture of 2,6-dinitro-m-xylene (11.2 g) and 10% palladium on charcoal (620 mg) was stirred in triethylamine (36 mL) under an atmosphere of nitrogen and heated to reflux. Formic acid (9.25 mL) was added dropwise to the above mixture with vigorous stirring. After addition, the mixture was allowed to stir at reflux for an additional 15 min, then cooled to room temperature. The reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate (100 mL) and filtered through celite. The filtrate was washed with brine and dried over magnesium sulfate. Evaporation afforded 9.51 g as a yellow solid.
