Dissolved in toluene was 3.1 g (0.02 mole) of 4-chloro-N-methyl-benzylamine, followed by an addition of a catalytic amount of pyridine and a further dropwise addition of 1.8 g (0.022 mole) of diketene at room temperature. After stirring the reaction mixture at room temperature for 3 hours, it was poured in water and then extracted with toluene.
