A solution of 1.77 g (10 m mol) of 4,5-dichloro-1,2-phenylenediamine in 15 ml of 4N aqueous hydrochloric acid was stored at room temperature overnight. To the solution was added 1.42 g (15 m mol) of monochloroacetic acid, and refluxed for 3 hours and filtered. The filterate was cooled to room temperature, stirred and rendered alkaline by addition of ammonium hydroxide. The separated precipitate was washed with water and dried to give 1.9 g (68%) of the title compound.
