反应详情

100 g of 1-amino-4-methoxy-2,3,5-trimethylbenzene was dissolved in 1,000 ml of acetic acid and 50 ml of water. Then 212 g of potassium thiocyanate was added to the solution at room temperature. The reaction mixture was cooled with ice and 37.5 ml of bromine was added dropwise thereto, followed by stirring for 30 minutes. The reaction mixture was neutralized with a 1N aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide. The insoluble matters thus formed were separated by filtering and washed with water. After recrystallizing from methanol/tetrahydrofuran, 123 g of the title compound was obtained.
