N-Methylbenzylamine (9.89 g, 0.082 mol) is added dropwise to a suspension of MNNG (10.0 g, 0.068 mol) in aqueous ethanol (1:1 ethanol:water, v/v) at 25° C. A gradual exotherm to 44° C. occurs over the next 15 minutes. After stirring for 42 hours at ambient temperature, the white slurry is filtered. The resultant white solid (7.13 g) is recrystallized from hexanes:ethanol to afford pure product (white crystals, 6.06 g, 43.0%, melting point 103° C.-107° C.).
