Procedure

A mixture of 60 g of potassium phthalimide and 66.4 g of α-bromomethyl styrene (prepared by the method of S. F. Reed, Jr., J. Org. Chem., 30, 3258 (1965)) in 150 ml of dimethylformamide is refluxed for 2 hours, cooled, and diluted with 400 ml of water. The resulting solid is filtered and dried in vacuo to give 83.4 g of N-(2-phenyl-2-propenyl)phthalimide. A small sample that is recrystallized from acetone-hexane has a melting point of 118°-121°C.
