Reaction Steps

Iron powder, 80 g., is suspended in 125 ml of ethyl alcohol and 100 ml of water and 6 ml of concentrated HCl is added. The mixture is heated to reflux and 140 g. of m-nitro pentafluoropropionanilide is added portionwise to keep the mixture at reflux. When reaction is complete, 6 g. of 50% NaOH is added and the mixture filtered to remove iron oxides and the filtrate stripped under vacuum. The product crystallizes from the aqueous solution giving 107 g., m.p. 86°-88° C.
