Reaction Steps

At RT a solution of 153 g (0.66 mol) ethyl 4-amino-3-trifluoromethyl-benzoate in 350 mL EtOH was added to a solution of 100 g (2.5 mol) NaOH in 250 mL water and the reaction mixture was stirred for 2 h at 45° C. EtOH was eliminated i. vac., the remaining aqueous solution was acidified with conc. HCl, the precipitated product was suction filtered, washed with water and dried in the air.
