Procedure

2,6-Diethylaniline (120 grams), the diethyl acetal of 2-chloroacetaldehyde (78.8 grams) and sodium carbonate (42.4 grams) were charged into a glass reaction vessel equipped with a mechanical stirrer, thermometer and reflux condenser. The reaction mixture was heated at 150° C. for a period of about 30 hours. After this time the mixture was filtered and the filtrate was distilled to yield the desired product the diethyl acetal of 2-(2,6-diethylanilino)acetaldehyde having a boiling point of 130° C. at 1 mm of Hg pressure.
