Reaction Steps

To a slurry of 2-amino-4-methyl-3-nitropyridine (10.0 g, 65.3 mmol) in 350 ml of 95% EtOH was added 500 mg of a 10% Pd/C catalyst. The mixture was stirred under a H2 atmosphere (1 atm) for 36 hours. Filtration and evaporation gave a black solid which was used directly in the next step.
