Procedure

This compound was prepared by treating 4-aminobenzonitrile with a slight excess, on a molar equivalents basis, of methyl iodide in tetrahydrofuran solvent for 4 hrs at room temperature. Removal of the THF and other volatiles, followed by recrystallization, gave a 76% yield of 4-(N-methyl)aminobenzonitrile, mp 85-87° C. Using Example 1 procedure, the aforesaid substituted nitrile was treated with ethanolamine to obtain a 70% yield of 2-[4-(N-methyl) aminophenyl]oxazoline, mp 145-147° C. Following the Example 6 procedure, the aforesaid compound was treated with TDO to form the oxazoline shown below, having a methyl group attached to the nitrogen in the acetoacetanilide segment. The product was recrystallized from ethyl acetate, mp 102-105° C. Elemental analysis, FT-IR, exhibiting 1726 (C—O) and 1635 (—C═N—) cm−1 absorptions, and with 1H NMR confirmed the below drawn structure.
