Abstract

In order to reduce the time required for this synthesis, investigation of an alternative method has been made. The modification developed in this laboratory consists of subjecting the crude 3, 4-dimethylacetophenone obtained from fenchone to the Schmidt reaction, followed by hydrolysis of the crude 3, 4-dimethylacetanilide. The present procedure eliminates the need for isolation of dimethylacetophenone as the oxime and the time consuming ...
