Reaction Steps

5.0 grams (0.016 mole) of the sodium salt of 4-cyano-5,6-diphenyl-3-(2H)-pyridazinone was reacted with 1.83 grams (0.017 mole) of dimethylcarbamyl chloride in 50 mls of dimethylformamide. This solution was heated 110° C. for 3 hours, cooled, and poured into excess water. The precipitant solid was filtered, washed with water and air dried. This solid was taken up in chloroform, dried over sodium sulfate and the solvent distilled at reduced pressure. The residual solid was recrystallized from ethyl alcohol to give 3.0 grams of a solid which melted at 231° C. The infrared spectrum showed the methyl group at 3.5μ, the nitrile band at 4.5μ, and two carbonyl bands at 5.8 and 6.0μ.
