6-BroMo-N1-Methylbenzene-1,2-diaMine synthesis

Yield: 99%

Reaction Conditions:

with iron;acetic acid in water;ethyl acetate at 50 - 80; for 4 h;

Steps:

2 Step 2-3-Bromo-N2-methyl-benzene-1,2-diamine
To a mixture of 2-bromo-N-methyl-6-nitro-aniline (23.0 g, 99.5 mmol) in EA (300 mL) and H₂O (10 mL) was added AcOH (100 mL). The mixture was warmed to 50° C. Then Fe (22.2 g, 398 mmol) was added to the reaction mixture and the mixture was heated to 80° C. about 4 hours. On completion, the reaction mixture was filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was diluted with water (100 mL) and extracted with EA (3×200 mL). The combined organic layers was dried over Na₂SO₄, filtered and concentrated in vacuo to give the title compound (20.0 g, 99% yield) as red oil. ¹H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d₆) δ 6.73-6.70 (m, 1H), 6.68-6.60 (m, 2H), 5.02 (s, 2H), 3.67 (s, 1H), 2.58 (s, 3H).
