Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 8-hydroxyquinaldine (9.93 g) and p-anisaldehyde (20 mL) is heated at 180° C. overnight. The reaction is then cooled to room temperature and vacuum distilled. Once the majority of the p-anisaldehyde is distilled off (below 100° C.), the residue remaining in the flask is taken up in hot 95% EtOH. Any undissolved material is filtered off. H2O is added to the EtOH filtrate and the product is obtained as a yellow solid (3.42 g).
