Reaction Steps

Nitromethane (0.473 g) is added to a solution of 3-dimethylamino-5-trifluoromethyl-benzaldehyde (0.885 g) and ammonium acetate (0.339 g) in acetic acid (3.4 mL) and the solution is heated at 110° C. for 6 hours. The reaction mixture is cooled to 0° C. and a solid forms which is filtered and washed with 1:1 water-acetic acid.
