Procedure
At first, 3-nitro-4-ethylamino-benzotrifluoride is prepared from 4-chloro-3-nitrobenzotrifluoride and ethyl-amine according to Geman Offenlegungsschrift No. 2 018 232, Example 1), and the former product is catalytically reduced in ethanol to give the 3-amino-4-ethyl-amino-benzotrifluoride colorless crystals of a melting point of from 72° to 74° C.
