Synthesis

13506-76-8

4389-50-8
General procedure for the synthesis of 2-amino-6-methylbenzoic acid from 2-methyl-6-nitrobenzoic acid: Pd/C catalyst (150 mg) was added to a methanol (35 mL) solution of 2-methyl-6-nitrobenzoic acid (1.5 g, 8.29 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred for 2 hours at room temperature under hydrogen atmosphere. Upon completion of the reaction, the mixture was filtered to remove the catalyst and the filtrate was subsequently concentrated to give 2-amino-6-methylbenzoic acid (1.2 g) in yellow solid form. The product was characterized by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LCMS, ESI mode): the calculated value of C8H9NO2 [M+H]+ was 152 and the measured value was 152, as expected.
