3-Amino-1-propanol → 3-[(2-Chloro-6-nitrophenyl)amino]-1-propanol

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 100 parts of 1,2-dichloro-3-nitrobenzene, 95 parts of 3-amino-1-propanol and 200 parts of butanol is stirred and refluxed overnight. The reaction mixture is cooled and evaporated. The residue is taken up in water and the product is extracted with methylbenzene. The extract is washed with water, dried, filtered and evaporated, yielding 115 parts of 3-[(2-chloro-6-nitrophenyl)amino]-1-propanol as a residue.
