Reaction Steps

The general procedure from H. J. Barber et. al. Journal of the Chemical Society, 1948, page 1458 was followed. A 250 mL round bottom flask equipped with a magnetic stir bar and a condenser further attached to a N2 source was charged with 10.0 g (61.7 mmol, available from Aldrich,) phthalhydrazide, 9.57 g (191 mmol, available from Aldrich) hydrazine hydrate, and 60 mL of water. The mixture was heated to 90° C. at which point it became substantially homogeneous, then filtered while warm. The filtrate was added to about 1 L of ethanol then the precipitate was collected by filtration and dried in vacuo at room temperature to afford 9.0 g (46 mmol, 75% yield) of fluffy, white powder. TGA analysis showed 15.7 wt % loss by 150° C. (16.5% is theoretical loss of hydrazine).
