Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 50.46 g t-butyl hydrazine hydrochloride and 32 g of 50 percent aqueous sodium hydroxide in 70 ml of water is stirred in an ice water bath. About 55 g of 4-phenyl-2-butanone is added with stirring. The reaction and isolation are continued as in Example (a). The title compound is isolated as a fraction distilled under 0.9 mm pressure at 110° C.-119° C. The yield is about 49 percent based upon the initial amount of 4-phenyl-2-butanone added.
