HCID 13017553N-(p-chlorobenzylidene)-2-methyl-3-chloroaniline

Procedure

2-methyl-3-chloroaniline (0.25 mole) and 4-chlorobenzaldehyde (0.25 mole) are ground in a mortar. The mixture is heated, with stirring in a water bath for 1.5 hours. Distillation at reduced pressure gives N-(p-chlorobenzylidene)-2-methyl-3-chloroaniline; Bp. 139° C./0/020 mm.
