Abstract
[reaction: see text] Room-temperature reduction of aromatic nitro groups to amines can be accomplished in high yield, with wide functional group tolerance and short reaction times (30 min) using a combination of palladium(II) acetate, aqueous potassium fluoride, and polymethylhydrosiloxane (PMHS). Replacing PMHS/KF with triethylsilane allows aliphatic nitro groups to be reduced to their hydroxylamines.
