Reaction Steps

1000 ml of dried methylene chloride are placed in a 4 l sulfonating vessel at 0° C. together with 334 g of methacrylic acid chloride. A mixture of 500 ml of dried methylene chloride, 323 of dried triethylamine and 454 of N-benzyl-N(β-hydroxyethyl)aniline, (the compound of formula 1a) are added drop by drop to this mixture at 0°-10° C. The reaction mixture is allowed to rise to room temperature slowly and is controlled on a thin layer chromatograph (silica gel) solvent: toluene/acetic acid ester 2:1. After the end of the reaction (after standing overnight), the reaction mixture is filtered and washed three times with one liter of a 10% aqueous NaOH solution and finally four times each time with 1 l of water. The organic phase is then dried over sodium sulphate and the solvent is removed in a rotary evaporator. 482 g of the product of formula 1d ##STR15## results.
