Reaction Steps

Add 20 ml of dioxan and 10 g of 2-trifluoromethyl-5-nitroaniline or 2-nitro-5-trifluoromethyl-aniline to 12 g of nicotinic acid methyl ester. Reflux for 60 hours; then pour the reaction mass into water. Filter the resulting solid and recrystallize several times from ethanol. 5 g of (I) or (III) are thus obtained with the same melting-point values as the products of Examples 1 and 3.
