Reaktionsschritte

6.86 g (50 m moles) of 2-methoxymethylaniline was dissolved in 50 ml of concentrated hydrochloric acid. The solution was cooled to −10° C. Thereto was dropwise added a solution of sodium nitrite (4.14 g, 60 m moles) dissolved in water (50 ml) while a temperature of −10° C. to 0° C. was being kept. Then, a solution of 44.6 g (235 m moles) of stannous chloride dissolved in concentrated hydrochloric acid (50 ml) was dropwise added at the above temperature in 1 hour. After the completion of the dropwise addition, stirring was conducted with a gradual temperature increase to about 20° C. Then, a 10% aqueous sodium hydroxide solution was dropped to obtain a pH of 14, after which extraction with toluene was conducted. The toluene layer was washed with water and concentrated under reduced pressure using a rotary evaporator to obtain 5.40 g (35.5 m moles) of liquid 2-methoxymethylphenylhydrazine. Yield: 71%.
