Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To an ice-cooling solution of (4'-methylbiphenyl-2-yl)carboxylic acid (3.0 g) and triethylamine (2.2 ml) in N,N-dimethylformamide (10 ml) was added DPPA (3.4 ml) under nitrogen atmosphere, and the mixture was stirred for 4 hours at the same temperature. To the reaction mixture was added water, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with water and dried. The solution was added dropwise to benzene (150 ml) heated at 80° C. The mixture was then stirred for 20 minutes at the same temperature. The isocyanate solution thus prepared was added dropwise to a solution of hydrazine (2.0 ml) in benzene (50 ml) heated at 70° C. during the period of 90 minutes. The powdery product obtained by evaporating the solvent under reduced pressure was washed with ethyl acetate and dried to afford the title compound as white power (2.9 g, 85%), m.p.148°-151° C.
