MAGNESIUM SILICATE (synthetic) → 2-[(1,2-Dichloroethenyl)oxy]aniline

Participants

Reaction Steps

Two hundred and eighteen grams of 1,2-dichloro-1-(2-nitrophenoxy)ethene in ethyl acetate with 2.2 g of 10% palladium-on-charcoal was treated with 60 pounds per square inch gauge of hydrogen at 60° until there was no further uptake of hydrogen. The reaction mixture was filtered through Celite® and concentrated in vacuo to yield a brown oil. This oil was taken up in 20% ethyl acetate/hexane and passed through a column of Florisil® two times to yield 169.5 g of oil after evaporation of the solvent.
