Reaktionsschritte

To a stirred solution of N-(2,6-Dimethylbenzyl)phthalimide (Step B, 7.77 g, 29.3 mmol) in ethanol (80 ml) was added hydrazine monohydrate (2.16 ml, 44.52 mmol) and the reaction mixture was refluxed for 3.5 hours. To this reaction mixture was added c HCl to bring pH to 1 and refluxing continued for another 3.5 hours, water was added and reaction mixture was filtered, the filtrate was concentrated and pH was adjusted to 10 with 2 N NaOH.
