Reaction Steps

A solution of 29.4 g (0.1 mole) of α,α-dibromomethyl-o-toluic acid and 14.7 g (0.32 mole) of methylhydrazine in 100 ml of ethanol was heated under reflux for 3 hours. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure, and the residue recrystalized from ethanol to give 12.0 g (yield: 75%) of 2-methyl-1-phthalazinone having a melting point of 111°-112° C.
