Reaction Steps

A solution of 2.41 g (10 mmol) (E)-1-fluoro-3-[2-(4-nitrophenyl)ethenyl]-benzene in 25 ml of ethyl acetate is flushed with argon and, thereafter, hydrogenated at RT and atmospheric pressure during 4 hours using 0.241 g of platinum on carbon (5%) as the catalyst. For the working-up, the catalyst is filtered over Dicalit and the resulting solution is evaporated under reduced pressure. The solid material obtained is crystallised from a mixture of ether and heptane to yield 1.32 g (62.5% of theory) of (E)-4-[2-(3-fluoro-phenyl)-vinyl]-phenylamine as an orange solid; MS: m/e=213 (M)+.
