Reaction Steps

1-t-Butylazo-1-chloro-1-phenylethane was prepared in 99% crude yield by adding 34.8 grams (0.49 moles) of chlorine to a pentane solution of 92.8 grams (0.49 moles) of acetophenone t-butylhydrazone and 50.5 grams (0.50 moles) of triethylamine at 0° C., filtering off the insoluble triethylamine hydrochloride that forms and evaporating the pentane under reduced pressure. The yield was 109 grams of a yellow liquid.
