A stirred solution of 140.9 g (0.909 mol) of N-(3-oxocyclohexyl)acetamide in 900 ml of glacial HOAc was heated at 85°-95° C. while 98.2 g (0.909 mol) of phenylhydrazine was added dropwise during 1 hr. After an additional 3 hr at 95°±5°, the hot solution was poured into 5 l. of H2O. When the initially formed gum had solidified, the product was filtered, washed with 2.5 l. of H2O, then 2 l. of Et2O to give 167.6 g (81%) of a grey solid, mp 203°-206°. Recrystallization was best effected by dissolving the crude solid in boiling Me2CO (1 g/25 ml) and boiling down to 1 g/10 ml. The resulting yellow solid (133.5 g, mp 208°-209°) was recrystallized again from Me2CO to yield 111.8 g of white solid, mp 208°-209°. To remove Me2CO occluded by the crystalline solid, the product was further recrystallized from EtOH, 86% recovery of white solid, mp 208°-209°.
