Reaction Steps

To an ice-cooled suspension of 63.27 g (0.282 mol) of 2-amino-5-(benzyloxy)benzonitrile in 500 ml of concentrated hydrochloric acid, a solution of 23.32 g (0.338 mol) of sodium nitrite in 75 ml of water was added dropwise. After 2 hours the cold suspension was added dropwise to a preformed solution of 509.25 g (2.26 mol) of stannous chloride in 380 ml of concentrated HCl, at 2° C. After 3 hours the cold suspension was filtered and the moist solid was treated with 1.8 l of boiling water and 300 ml of ethanol 950 for 30 min. The hot cloudy solution was clarified by filtration through a cloth filter. The liquors were concentrated to eliminate ethanol and treated dropwise with 0.35 l of 35% NaOH at 4° C. The solid was filtered off and dried under vacuum at 50° C.: 73.82 g of product were obtained as light brown solid. mp=193-195° C. HPLC r.t. 4.7 [M]+=240 [2M+H]+=479
