The mixture maintained under an atmosphere of argon is heated to a temperature in the region of 40° C., and phosgene (5.20 g; 52.6 mmol) is then added with stirring in the course of 25 minutes, while maintaining the temperature between 36° C. and 40° C. During the introduction of phosgene, a white precipitate of 3-(2-methylanilino)propionic acid hydrochloride forms. The reaction mixture is heated to a temperature in the region of 40° C. for a further hour. The white precipitate is then almost completely dissolved. After cooling to 20° C. and the removal of the phosgene which has not reacted, the light precipitate which remains is separated by filtration. The filtrate is concentrated to dryness. N-Chloroformyl-3-(2-methylanilino)propionic acid (7 g) is thus obtained almost pure, m.p. 112° C., the structure of which is confirmed by the infrared spectrum, mass spectrum and proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum. The product, after recrystallisation in a toluene/hexane mixture (70:30 by volume), melts at 113° C.
