4-Aminophenylacetic acid → HCID 14988368, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A suspension of 9.2g (0.061 mole) of p-aminophenylacetic acid in 150 ml of 1,2-dimethoxyethane was added to a suspension of 8.0g (0.0298 mole) of 3,5-di-t-butyl-4-hydroxybenzoyl chloride in 100 ml of 1,2-dimethoxyethane, and the resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 12 hours. The reaction mixture was then filtered. The filtrate was thereafter diluted with water and chilled. The resulting precipitate was collected and recrystallized from a mixture of ethanol and water to give 1.32g of yellow crystalline 4-(3,5-di-t-butyl-4-hydroxybenzamido)phenylacetic acid, m.p. 253°-254° C. Analysis: Calculated for C23H29NO4 : %C, 72.0; %H, 7.6; %N, 3.6; Found: %C, 72.0; %H, 7.7; %N, 3.4.
