Procedure

A solution of 20.0 g (0.067 mol) of 2-(2'-chloro-4'-nitrophenyl)-5,5-dimethyl-1,3-cyclohexanedione in 150 ml of concentrated ammonium hydroxide and 150 ml of ethanol was stirred at room temperature while passing hydrogen sulfide gas through the solution at such a rate that all of the H2S was absorbed. When the solution was saturated with H2S, the temperature was raised to the reflux point and H2S continuously passed slowly through the refluxing solution for 24 hours. The reaction mixture was filtered to remove sulfur, then the filtrate evaporated under reduced pressure. To the residue was added 300 ml of 0.25N NaOH, and the solution filtered once more. The filtrate was collect and carefully acidified to pH=4 with 6N HCl. A white solid formed which was collected by suction filtration to give 13.3 g (74%) of 2-(2'-Chloro-4'-aminophenyl)-5,5-dimethyl-1,3-cyclohexanedione, m.p. 218°-19° C.
