Reaction Steps

To a solution of hydrazinecarboxylic acid ethyl ester (ethyl carbazate, 32.8 g, 314.9 mmol) and triethylamine (44.1 ml, 32.0 g, 316.4 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (1000 ml) at 0° C. was added (2,4,6-trimethyl-phenyl)-acetyl chloride (62.0 g, 315.2 mmol) dropwise. The thick suspension was stirred at room temperature for one hour and the solvent evaporated. The residue was suspended in a mixture of t-butyl methyl ether (500 ml) and water (500 ml), stirred, filtered and the solid washed with small portions of water and t-butyl methyl ether. The solid was dried in vacuo over phosphorus pentoxide at 40° C. Yield: 78.4 g of N′-[2-(2,4,6-trimethyl-phenyl)-acetyl]-hydrazinecarboxylic acid ethyl ester as a white solid, mp 184-186° C.
