Procedure
2,6-Dimethylaniline (61.8 g, 0.51 mol) was added to a stirred solution of acetaldehyde (35.5 g, 0.81 mol) in tetrahydrofuran (500 mL). After stirring the reaction mixture for 1 day at room temperature, the volatiles were removed in vacuo, the residue was dissolved in THF (500 mL), acetaldehyde (35.5 g) was added to the resulting solution and the reaction mixture was allowed to react for another day at room temperature. This procedure was repeated several times until the conversion of 2,6-dimethylaniline was >98% as determined by gas chromatographic analysis. Yield: 76.7 g (102%).
