Hello,

In my thesis work I'm working on an issue about an aromatic nitro group reaction. I need to reduce a nitro to aniline, but in the molecule there is also a secondary amine function present. The result with a 10% Pd/C and hydrazine hydrate reduction on ethanol (reflux) showed a hydrogenolysis on the secondary amine. Do you know any reports about that? Should the secondary amine be protected, or, maybe using another reduction process?

Thanks for your help.
