Participants

Reaction Steps

20.5 g of β-amino-β-ethoxyacrylic acid ethyl ester together with 1.5 g of p-toluenesulphonic acid were dissolved in 200 ml of ethanol. 26 g of m-bromobenzylhydrazine were added dropwise to this solution, under nitrogen. After stirring for two hours, the mixture was left to stand overnight and the compound identified above, which had separated out as a precipitate, was filtered off and recrystallised from ethanol.
