N-(3-(dimethylamino)propyl)-N-methyl-2-nitro-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzenamine → N~1~-[3-(dimethylamino)propyl]-N~1~-methyl-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzene-1,2-diamine

Participants

Reaction Steps

To N-(3-(dimethylamino)propyl)-N-methyl-2-nitro-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzenamine (1.46 g, 5.05 mmol) in dry MeOH (50 mL) was added Pd/C (10%, 535 mg). H2 gas was bubbled through the solution at room temperature overnight with vigorous stirring. The reaction mixture was filtered through celite to provide, after concentration, the title compound as an orange solid. MS m/z (M+H)+=276; Calc'd for C13H20F3N3: 275.32.
