Procedure

By essentially the procedure of Example 1, a tube was charged with 40 g of methyldiphenylamine and 2.0 g CuCl2. 2H2O. The reaction was run at 115°-125° C. for 2 hr at 290-400 psi. About 0.1 mole of oxygen was injected incrementally. GC/MS analysis showed a 98.6% conversion of methyldiphenylamine and a 43.3% yield of diphenylformamide.
