Reaction Steps

A mixture of 4-nitrophthalonitrile (0.6 g, 5.78 mmol), 2-aminophenol (1 g, 5.78 mmol) and potassium carbonate (1.6 g, 11.6 mmol) in DMF (25 ml) was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. The mixture was then poured into water. The precipitate was filtered off, washed with water and dried to give yellow crystals of 4-(2-aminophenoxy)phthalonitrile (yield: 1.32 g (97%)). Mp: 118-118.2° C.
