Participants

Reaction Steps

Acetone tert-butylhydrazone (2.0 g) is admixed with 4.4 g of benzoyl chloride and 15 mL of 10% sodium hydroxide. The mixture is stirred until the benzoyl chloride odor is no longer detectable. The resulting product is then dissolved in ether and dried over magnesium sulfate. Evaporation of the solvent from the mixture leaves acetone N-tert-butyl-N-benzoylhydrazone, b.p. 100°-103° C. This product also is referred to as 1-tert-butyl-2-isopropylidenehydrazide of benzoic acid.
