Procedure
Reflux 45 g. of o-benzoylbenzoic acid and 120 ml. of ethylenediamine for 3 hours. Pour the mixture into ice water, allow to stand until the mixture is at room temperature and separate the product by filtration. Recrystallize from ethanol to obtain 9-phenyl-1,2,3,9b-tetrahydro-5H-imidazo-[2,1-a]isoindol-5-one, m.p. 155°-7° C. Elemental analysis confirms the empirical formula C16H14N2O.
