Participants

Reaction Steps

20.5 g of β-amino-β-ethoxyacrylic acid ethyl ester together with 1.5 g of p-toluenesulphonic acid were dissolved in 200 ml of ethanol. 26 g of m-bromobenzylhydrazine were added dropwise to this solution, under nitrogen. After stirring for 2 hours, the mixture was left to stand overnight and the compound identified above, which had separated out as a precipitate, was filtered off and recrystallised from ethanol.
