Toluene → 2-methyl-4-(2,4-diethylphenyl)-1-(2H)-phthalazinone

참여 물질

반응 단계

A mixture of 2-(2,4-diethylbenzoyl)benzoic acid (40 g, 0.14 mol), toluene (120 mL) and methyl hydrazine (7.5 mL) were refluxed for 3 hours with removal of water via a Dean Stark trap. Additional toluene (100 mL) and methyl hydrazine (4.0 mL) were added and the mixture was refluxed until 2.8 mL of water was collected. The mixture was cooled, extracted with CH2Cl2 /2N NaOH, then 1N HCl and the organic layer was separated, dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was crystallized from ethanol/water and recrystallized from ethanol/water to afford 22.86 g (55.9%) of 2-methyl-4-(2,4-diethylphenyl)-1-(2H)-phthalazinone, m.p. 94.5°-96.5° C.
