Procedure

14.65 g (0.05 mol) of 2-aminomethyl-4-(1,1-dimethylethyl)-6-methylsulfonylphenol hydrochloride are dissolved in 100 ml of trifluoroacetic acid, 9 g (0.065 mol) of urotropine (hexamethylenetetraamine) are added, and the mixture is boiled under reflux for 2.5 h. Then 50 ml of 4 N hydrochloric acid are added, the mixture is again boiled under reflux for 10 minutes, and the reaction mixture is poured onto ice-water and filtered with suction. Pale yellow crystals of melting point: 134°-136° C.
