Procedure

A solution of 10 g. of 13,13-dimethyltetradecyl bromide and 10.8 g. of ethyl 4-aminobenzoate in 75 ml. hexamethylphosphoramide is heated at 110° C. for 17 hours. The cooled solution is diluted with 100 ml. water, filtered, and the residue is washed in portions with 100 ml. 50% ethanol-water. After drying, the product is crystallized from ethanol-water. After drying, the product is crystallized from ethanol to yield ethyl 4-(13,13-dimethyltetradecyl)aminobenzoate as colorless crystals.
