Participants

Reaction Steps

A reaction mixture is prepared from 1,2-bis[4-(3-methylbenzoyl)phenoxy]ethane dioxime (10.6 g, 0.022 mole), 400 ml absolute ethyl alcohol saturated with ammonia gas and Raney nickel catalyst W-6 (2 g). This mixture is subjected to 500 psi hydrogen pressure, heated to 90° and stirred for seven hours. The Raney nickel is removed by filtration and the alcohol and ammonia by distillation. The residual crude material is crystallized from ethanol to yield 4.2 g (42%) of material mp 113°-115°.
