Reaction Steps

N-(2-Cyano-5-methyl-phenyl)-2-methoxy-benzamide 2-Amino-4-methyl anthronitrile (50.0 g, 378.3 mmol) was dissolved in 1 L dry pyridine and cooled to 0° C. O-Anisoyl chloride (63.0 ml, 453.96 mmol) was added dropwise over a 40 minute period and the reaction was allowed to warm to room temperature and stirred under a nitrogen atmosphere for 16 hours. The reaction was poured over 2 L of ice and the product formed a precipitate. The product was collected by vacuum filtration and dried for 3 days to produce the desired product a fluffy tan solid. Recovered 92.0 g 91% yield. LC/MS (10-99%) M/Z 267.2, retention time 3.34 minutes.
