Reaction Steps

5-Chloro-2-methoxybenzoyl chloride (15g.), dissolved in benzene, was added slowly to a solution of phenethylamine (18 g.) in benzene. Phenethylamine hydrochloride formed was filtered off, and the benzene removed from the filtrate. The residual oil was distilled to give an oil (19.4 g., 90%) b.p. 205° at 0.2 mm., which crystallized on standing m.p. 60°-63°.
