Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of Methyl 4-n-hexyloxybenzoate (2.00 g) and hydrazine hydrate (4.24 g) in ethanol (10 ml) was refluxed for 6 hours. After cooling, the reaction mixture was poured into water. The precipitate was collected by filtration, washed with water and dried over P2O5 under reduced pressure to give N-(4-n-hexyloxybenzoyl)hydrazine (1.96 g).
