Reaction Steps

One heats to reflux for 15 hours 0.3 mole of parachloronitrobenzene (47.35 g) in solution in 150 ml of β-methoxyethylamine. One then pours the cooled reaction mixture into 300 g of crushed ice. The intended product precipitates first in the form of a red oil which crystallizes rapidly. After recrystallization in ethanol and drying under vacuum the product melts at 86° C. Analysis gives the following results:
