Procedure

250 g (1.7 moles) of phthalimide were suspended in 2.75 liter of acetonitrile and after 250 ml (1.8 moles) of triethylamine were added, the mixture was heated to gentle reflux. 250 ml (1.97 moles) of trimethylchlorosilane were added in 10 minutes and the reaction mixture was then concentrated to a thick paste. 2.5 liter of light petroleum (80°-110° C) were added, the triethylammonium hydrochloride was filtered off and washed with 500 ml of light petroleum. The filtrate ans washings were combined and concentrated until crystallization started. After cooling in the refrigerator for several hours, N-trimethylsilylphthalimide was isolated by filtraton, washed with a small portion of light petroleum (40°-60° C) and dried in vacuo. The compound was further purified by recrystallization from ligroin (80°-100° C). PMR: 0.51 (s, 9); 7.73 (centre of super imposed signals, 4).
