Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 8.0 g of ethyl (2-n-octadecylthio-2-methylpropionyl)acetate obtained in Step 1 above and 3.2 g of o-anisidine was stirred in an oil bath at 140° C for 3 hours under a reduced pressure of 60 mmHg, and then the excess o-anisidine was removed under a reduced pressure of 1mmHg. The reaction mixture was recrystallized from ethanol to obtain 7.9 g (yield 83%) of Coupler (4) having a melting point of 59° to 61° C.
