Reaction Steps

A mixture of γ-(p-aminobenzoyl)butyric acid hydrochloride (349.5 g), 2-methyl-2-nitro-1-propanol (222 g), sodium hydroxide (114.8 g), benzyltriethyl ammonium chloride (6.35 g) and water (1.5 liters) was refluxed for 40 hours. Concentrated hydrochloric acid (170 ml) was added to the reaction mixture to acidify it. The precipitated crystals were collected by filtration to give γ-[4-(2-methyl-2-nitropropylamino)benzoyl]butyric acid (364.46 g).
