A stirred solution of 24.6 parts of N-(2-dimethylaminoethyl)formamide and 30 parts of water was heated to 60° and over a period of one hour there was added 40.3 parts of 4-methoxy-3-nitrobenzylchloride. Heating between 60° and 65° C. was continued for three and one-half hours at which time the pH of the mixture stabilized above 7.0. To the cooled mixture was added 20 l parts of water and the resulting mixture was clarified by filtration. An aqueous solution of N,N-dimethyl-N-(3-nitro-4-methoxybenzyl)-N-2-formamidoethylammonium chloride was obtained. This solution was used directly for reduction of the nitro group.
