Reaktionsschritte

N-Ethyl-4-nitrophthalimide (28.0 g.) is hydrogenated in 400 ml. of ethanol and in the presence of Raney nickel catalyst (10 g.) at 100°C. and 1500 psi. pressure. The reaction mixture is filtered to remove the catalyst and the filtrate is concentrated to yield the product, 4-amino-N-ethylphthalimide, which is recrystallized from methanol-water mixture. It melts at 169°-171°C.
