CHEMOSELECTIVE REDUCTION OF NITROARENES TO AROMATIC AMINES WITH COMMERCIAL METALLIC IRON POWDER IN WATER UNDER MILD REACTION CONDITIONS

Seema Redhu
Page No. : 11-17

ABSTRACT

Novel, chemoselective, non-hazardous and mild reaction protocol was developed for an efficient reduction of nitroarenes to aromatic amines using “iron activated water”. Water function as a terminal hydrogen source without any external catalyst, acid, salts or base and in the absence of a solvent. In the course of the reaction, zero valent iron was oxidized to magnetite.
