Help in reduction to naphthylamine
Hello everyone
So I have this 1-nitronaphthalene with me. I am planning to reduce it to naphthylamine. I read somewhere that it's possible with Sn/HCl.
Do anyone have a written experimental method for that.

Hi vibbzlab, check out the SM site library and download one of the books on dye chemistry. I can't remember the title of the best one but is something
like "The chemistry of dye processes" by Fierz-Davis and someone else. its an English translation on the site library. I believe Vogel has the
reduction too.
Iron powder and a little HCl is what I generally try first id the amine is volatile in steam. I am not sure that 1-naphthylamine is but the references
above will help.

There are nitro reduction reactions in vogel, many internet preps and also in Organic Syntheses, the series.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1-Naphthylamine and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2-Naphthylamine

be aware that both isomers are known carcinogens.
