Reaction Steps

To a mixture of water (50 ml), ethanol (50 ml) and 50% aqueous sodium hydroxide (25 ml) is added 3-chloro-4-(phenethyloxy)aniline hydrochloride (8.25 g; 0.0290 mol). When the solid is all dissolved, the solution is extracted with ether (3×100 ml). The ether solution is washed with brine, dried over potassium carbonate and concentrated under vacuum to yield 5.16 g (77%) of a tan oil. This oil is distilled at 140° C. under 0.005 ml vacuum to afford the product, a colorless liquid.
