N-(1-(3,4-dimethylphenyl)-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)-2-nitro-5-(piperidin-1-yl)benzamide → 2-amino-N-(1-(3,4-dimethylphenyl)-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)-5-(piperidin-1-yl)benzamide

Reaction Steps

Into a 50-mL round bottom flask, was placed a solution of N-(1-(3,4-dimethylphenyl)-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)-2-nitro-5-(piperidin-1-yl)benzamide (400 mg, 0.95 mmol, 1.00 equiv) in acetic acid (8 mL), and zinc (600 mg, 9.23 mmol, 9.96 equiv). The resulting solution was stirred for 1 h at 70° C. The solids were filtered out. The resulting mixture was concentrated under vacuum. The solution was adjusted to pH 8 with ammonia (2 mol/L). The resulting solution was extracted with 2×50 mL of ethyl acetate and the organic layers combined, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and concentrated under vacuum. This resulted in 300 mg (81%) of 2-amino-N-(1-(3,4-dimethylphenyl)-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)-5-(piperidin-1-yl)benzamide as a green solid.
