Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

10.0 g of N-methylisatic acid are added gradually to 140 ml of water at a room temperature and 9.6 g of aqueous ammonia are added dropwise thereto. The mixture is warmed to a temperature of 80° C. during 45 minutes and ethanol is added thereto until the reaction mixture becomes colorless. Then, the reaction mixture is cooled to a room temperature and the precipitated crystals are collected by filtration to obtain 7.11 g of 2-carbamoyl-N-methylaniline as colorless crystal.
