Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 3-amino-N-phenylbenzamide (2.0 g, 9.4 mmol), diphenylcarbamoyl chloride (2.2 g, 9.4 mmol) and triethylamine (2.6 mL, 19 mmol) in ethanol (10 mL) was heated to reflux for 4.5 hours. The mixture was cooled and concentrated, water was added, the slurry was acidified with 1 N HCl and the solid was collected, washed with water, dried and recrystallized from acetone/hexanes, to give a colorless solid (1.63 g, 42%).
