Procedure

To a solution of the compound of N-(5-chloro(2-pyridyl))(5-methyl-2-nitrophenyl)carboxamide (1.48 g, 5.1 mmol) in methanol (10 ml) was added 5% Pt/C (1.48 g, 0.19 mmol). The mixture was applied hydrogen balloon at r.t. for 2 hrs. After the filtration by Celite, the filtrate was concentrated to give (2-aminophenyl)-N-(2-pyridyl)carboxamide, C, chloride, N (1.36 g, 100%). MS found for C13H12ClN3O M+=262, (M+2)+=264.
