Reaction Steps

2-Amino-N,3-dimethylbenzamide (4.10 g, 25.0 mmol), sodium hydrogensulfite (2.93 g, 27.5 mmol) and para-anisaldehyde (3.4 g, 25 mmol) were mixed in N,N′-dimethylacetamide (20 ml), stirred at 150° C. for 5 hours, then cooled to room temperature, and distilled water (100 ml) was added thereto and stirred at that temperature for 1 hour. The precipitated solid was taken out through filtration, dried, and recrystallized from hot ethanol to obtain the intended compound (3.42 g, 49%) as a white solid.
