Reaktionsschritte

There is dissolved 0.5 mole (83 g) of 2-methyl-5-ureido phenol into two liters of isopropyl alcohol to which have been added six liters of ice water and two liters of ammonia (22° Be). To this solution there is added 0.5 mole (112.5 g) of 2-methyl-5-methoxy paraphenylene diamine dihydrochloride in 800 cc of water. Then little by little, and with agitation there is added 1 mole (228 g) of ammonium persulfate in 400 cc of water. The reaction mixture is then filtered to recover the above benzoquinone imine which is then washed with water, yielding 120 g of crude indoaniline. After recrystallizing the same in a mixture of dimethylformamide and water and drying the same in a vacuum at ambient temperature, the resulting product melts with decomposition at 248° C.
