Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 2.5 g of 6,6'-dimethoxy-N,N"-diphenyl[1,1'-biphenyl]-3,3'-dicarboximidamide, monohydrochloride (see Example 1) and 25 g of dry pyridine hydrochloride is heated at 180° C for 75 minutes. The mixture is then cooled, diluted with 10 ml of water and acidified with 10 ml of concentrated hydrochloric acid. The mixture is further diluted with 100 ml of 10% hydrochloric acid and allowed to stand at 0° C for about 16 hours. The crystalline material so obtained is recrystallized from dilute HCl (10% hydrochloric acid and water until solution occurs at 100° C) to yield 900 mg of the title compound, melting point 306°-307° C.
