Procedure

A mixture of phthalic anhydride (0.02 mol) and phenyl hydrazine (0.04 mol) in 95 percent acetic acid (70 ml.) was heated to reflux for 24 hours in the presence of a catalytic amount of sodium acetate (0.4 g). Water was added to the mixture and the precipitate collected. The precipitate was washed with water, agitated with 2 percent aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide and filtered. The filtrate was acidified with concentrated hydrogen chloride. The precipitate was collected and recrystallized from ethyl acetate to produce the product, 2-phenyl-2,3-dihydrophthalazine-1,4-dione.
