Participants

Reaction Steps

Sodium acetylmethylphosphinate (4.3 g) and 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine (5.9 g) were refluxed and stirred in ethanol (150 ml). After 1 hr the hydrazine had disappeared to be replaced by a yellow solid. The mixture was refluxed and stirred a further hour, cooled and the hydrazone filtered off, washed with a little cold ethanol and dried (8.0 g). The filtrate on evaporation gave residual material (1.4 g).
