Reaction Steps

Dissolve 4-amino-1,2-benzenediol (23.2 g, 0.18 mole) in 95% ethanol. Under salt ice bath 140 ml 2M NaOH solution and 150 ml dichloromethane solution of 13-methyltetradecanoyl chloride (23.2 g, 0.18 mole) were added simultaneously to the benzenediol solution. Stir at room temperature for 6 hours. Adjust pH to 3.0 with HCl, freeze, and filtrate. Wash the filtrate to neutral with water and recrystallize with 50% ethanol to yield N-(3,4dihydroxyl-phenyl)-13-methyl-tetradecanamide (55.8 g, m.p. 85–86° C., yield rate 85%).
