Abstract
N-Ethyl-N-(β-methoxycarbonylethyl)aniline was prepared by an addition reaction of N-ethyl aniline with methyl acrylate at a refluxing temperature of 98-102℃ for 16 hours in the presence of acetic acid as a catalytic medium and 2% hydroquinone as an inhibitor. The purity of the product was 95.0% and yield was 95.1%. N-Ethyl-N-( β -methoxycarbonylethyl)aniline was purified by acetic anhydride as the acylating agent, the average purity of the product was 98.5% and average yield was 93.8% after purification.
