Reaction Steps

Aminodiphenylmethane (55 g; 0.3 mol) and epichlorhydrin (23.5 ml; 0.3 mol) are mixed in methanol (200 ml). The mixture is heated under reflux for 5 days. The methanol is then evaporated off in order to produce a beige solid. The latter is filtered and washed with ether in order to produce a white solid with a yield of 45%. Melting point: 186.0-186.4° C.
