Participants

Reaction Steps

To 18.6 g (0.10M) of N-phenyl-o-phenylenediamine in 100 ml ethanol, 4.8 g (0.12M) of sodium hydroxide in 20 ml water is added followed by 13 g (0.17M) of carbon disulfide. The mixture is heated to reflux for 5 hours. The reaction mixture is poured into 300 ml water and solid is collected. The crude material is recrystallized from ethanol and the recrystallized material weighs 25 g (74% yield) and melts at 195°-7° C.
