4-Hydroxybenzoic acid hydrazide → 4-Hydroxy-N-[(4-methoxyphenyl)methylidene]benzene-1-carbohydrazonic acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-hydroxybenzhydrazide (0.3 g, 0.002 mol) and p-anisaldehyde (0.27 g, 0.002 mol) in abs. EtOH (10 mL) was added 1 drop of acetic acid. The reaction mixture was refluxed for 4 hours. The reaction mixture was cooling to room temperature and concentrated to remove solvent. The resulting residue was solidified by EtOAc to give white solid 0.51 g, in 93% yield, mp: 209.0° C. 1H NMR (CD3OD) δ 8.23 (s, 1H), 7.82 (d, 2H), 7.76 (d, 2H), 6.97 (d,2H), 6.87 (d, 2H), 3.82 (s, 3H). 13C NMR (CD3OD) δ 166.8, 163.2, 162.7, 149.8, 130.8, 130.4, 128.2, 124.8, 116.3, 115.2, 55.9. Anal. Calcd for C15H14N2O3: C, 66.66; H, 5.22; N, 10.36. Found: C, 66.82; H, 5.28; N, 10.38.
