An efficient and practical method for highly chemoselective hydrogenation of nitrobenzylamines to aminobenzylamine hydrochlorides
Aqueous hydrochloric acid proved to be a very reliable modulator for adjusting the reactivity of palladium on carbon. Thus an efficient and practical method for the highly chemoselective hydrogenation of N,N- dialkylnitrobenzylamines to amino-N,N-dialkylbenzylamine hydrochlorides was established. The method features convenient performance, easy work-up and high efficiency
