A mixture of 31.5 parts of (4-amino-3-nitrophenyl)phenylmethanone, 21 parts of 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-propanediol, 2 parts of 4-methylbenzenesulfonic acid, 40 parts of butanol and 450 parts of methylbenzene is stirred and refluxed for 16 hours with water-separator. The reaction mixture is cooled and washed with ammonium hydroxide. The organic phase is dried, filtered and evaporated. The residue is crystallized from 2,2'-oxybispropane, yielding 27.5 parts (55%) of 4-(5,5-dimethyl-2-phenyl-1,3-dioxan-2-yl)-2-nitrobenzenamine; mp. 139.8° C.
