Participants

Reaction Steps

4.5 g (0.017 mole) of the above aniline and 2.7 g (0.018 mole) of cyclohexene-1,2-dicarboxylic anhydride in 70 ml of glacial acetic acid are stirred for 3 hours at 70° C. After the mixture has been cooled, 100 ml of water are added, and the precipitate is filtered off, washed with water and dried. 3.5 g (52%) of N-[4-tetrahydropyran-4-ylmethyl)-3,3-dihydro-2H-1,4-benzoxazin -3-on-6-yl]-3,4,5,6-tetrahydrophthalimide (mp. 187-189° C.),are obtained.
