A solution of 4-amino-2,5-dimethylbenzonitrile (preparation 31) (111 mg, 0.76 mmol) in acetic acid (5 ml) was treated with a solution of sodium nitrite (53 mg, 0.76 mmol) in water (1 ml). The resultant mixture was stirred at room temperature for 10 mins then left to stand for 48 hrs. The solvent was removed by evaporation and the residue purified by chromatography (SiO2, eluting with 50:50 hexane:ethyl acetate) to give the desired product (25 mg, 21%). 1H NMR (CD3OD) δ 2.60 (s, 3H), 7.50 (s, 1H), 8.15 (s, 1H), 8.20 (s, 1H). LRMS m/z=158.1 (M+1)+.
