Procedure
A mixture of 6-methyl-2,4-bis(trichloromethyl)benzo[1,3]dioxin-8-carbonyl chloride (2.0 g.) concentrated ammonia (10 ml.) and ethanol (10 ml.) was heated under reflux for 2 hours. A complete solution was not obtained, but the reaction mixture was cooled and filtered, and the solid product was washed with ethanol and dried, to give 6-methyl-2,4-bis(trichloromethyl)benzo[1,3]dioxin-8-carboxamide, m.p. 281°-283° C.
