참여 물질

반응 단계

Acetic anhydride (33.0 mL, 350 mmol) was added to a stirred solution of o-toluidine (30.0 g, 280 mmol) in dichloromethane (500 mL) at 0° C. The reaction mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature and stirred for 20 h. The reaction mixture was partitioned between DCM and water. The organic phase was washed with brine, then dried (MgSO4) and evaporated in vacuo. The residue was stirred in isohexane at 0° C. for 2 h, then filtered. The precipitate was washed with isohexane and dried under vacuum. The title compound (39.87 g, 95%) was obtained as a pale pink solid. δH (CDCl3) 7.80-7.78 (m, 1H), 7.26-7.20 (m, 2H), 7.13-7.08 (m, 1H), 6.92 (br s, 1H), 2.29 (s, 3H), 2.23 (s, 3H). LCMS (ES+) 150 (M+H)+, RT 0.85 minutes.
