Abstract

A new effective approach for synthesizing diverse N-substituted-benzene-1,2-diamines is reported. The treatment of N-substituted-2-nitroanilines with thiourea dioxide in the presence of sodium hydroxide efficiently formed the corresponding N-substituted-benzene-1,2-diamines, including N-(4-chlorophenyl)benzene-1,2-diamine with a good yield of 94%. The by-product is environmentally-friendly urea and is easy to separate from the product by filtration procedure that enhances the convenience of the approach.
