Reaction Steps

A mixture of 2-(4-diethylamino)benzoyl)benzoic acid (5.94 g.), N,N,N',N'-tetraethyl-m-phenylenediamine (4.84 g.) and acetic anhydride (3 ml.) was heated at 70° C. Addition of methanol (20 ml.) afforded 3-(2,4-bis(diethylamino)phenyl)-3-(4-(diethylamino)phenyl)phthalide (I: X= Y4 = (CH3CH2)2N, Y2 = Z4 = Z5 = Z6 = Z7 = H) (7.1 g., 135°- 137° C.).
