A mixture of phthalic anhydride (5.92 g.), N,N,N',N'-tetramethyl-m-phenylenediamine (6.56 g.), zinc chloride (5.40 g.) and chlorobenzene (70 ml.) was heated under reflux for three hours. The chlorobenzene was decanted and the residue was air-dried. A solution of the residue in dilute hydrochloric acid (10%, 20 ml. plus 20 ml. of water) was diluted with more water (20 ml.), affording 2-(2,4-bis-(dimethylamino)benzoyl)benzoic acid (II: Y'2 =Y'4 =(CH3)2N, Z4 =Z'5 =Z'6 =Z7 =H) dihydrochloride trihydrate (4 g., m.p. 136°-141° C.; after recrystallization from ethanol, m.p. 140°-141° C.). In another preparation the free base (m.p. 165°-168° C.) was obtained under less acidic conditions (pH 4-6).
