Procedure
To a mixture of 4.6 g heptylamine, 4.04 g triethylamine and 30 ml methylene dichloride, was added with stirring 4.06 g terephthaloyl chloride under ice cooling. Stirring was continued at room temperature for two hours, and the solid which separated out was collected by filtration, washed with methylene dichloride and water in that order, and dried, giving 6.5 g of N,N'-diheptylterephthalamide.
