Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture containing 4-amino-5-nitro-nicotinic acid ethyl ester (78; 15 g, 0.071 mol) and 10% Pd/C (500 mg) in MeOH (500 mL) was stirred under 1 atm of hydrogen at room temperature for 18 h. The reaction mixture filtered through a pad of Celite and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to afford 4,5-diamino-nicotinic acid ethyl ester 79 (10 g, 80%).
