Procedure
6.5 g (0.077 mol) of α-aminoisobutyronitrile are added dropwise to a solution of 17.1 g (0.072 mol) of 3-chloro-4-trifluoromethoxyphenyl isocyanate in 100 ml of acetone. The temperature increases to about 45° C. during this procedure. After the reaction has ceased, the solvent is evaporated off in vacuo, and the residue is then boiled for 1 hour with 80 ml of semi-concentrated hydrochloric acid. The 3-(3-chloro-4-trifluoromethoxyphenyl)-5,5-dimethyl-hydantoin formed during this process is recrystallized from toluene with the addition of petroleum ether. 16 g of product of melting point 104°-107° C. are obtained.
