Mode opératoire

A suspension of 2-nitrobiphenyl (2.061 g, 10.34 mmol) and O-methylhydroxylamine hydrochloride (1.088 g, 13.02 mmol) in DMF (15 mL) was added to a cold (0° C.) solution of potassium tert-butoxide (5.993 g, 53.40 mmol) and copper(I) chloride (0.246 g, 2.48 mmol) in DMF (35 mL). The cooling bath was removed and the resultant slurry was stirred at room temperature for 20 hours. The reaction mixture was poured into saturated aqueous NH4Cl (50 mL) and the mixture was extracted with CH2Cl2 (4×50 mL). The combined organic extracts were dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated. Purification of the crude material by column chromatography on silica gel (4:1 hexanes-ethyl acetate followed by 2:1 hexanes-ethyl acetate) provided 0.600 g (27%) 2-amino-6-phenyl-nitrobenzene as a yellow oil. 1H NMR (CDCl3) □ 4.99 (br s, 2H), 6.70 (dd, 1H, J=7.2, 1.2 Hz), 6.80 (dd, 1H, J=8.4, 1.2 Hz), 7.29–7.41 (m, 6H).
