Reaction Steps

Sodium hydroxide (400 mg, 10 mmol) in 10 mL of water was added to a solution of 4-hydrazino-benzenesulfonic acid (1.88 g, 10 mmol) in 20 mL of water. Acetophenone (1.32 g, 11 mmol) was then added, and the mixture was heated to 100° C. overnight. The resulting mixture was then cooled and washed with ether. The pH of the aqueous solution was then adjusted to 4 with conc. HCl. Water was removed under vacuum, and methanol was added. The solution was filtered and concentrated to give product (680 mg) as a yellow solid (MS: (M+H)+=291.15).
