Steps:
8 4-N-Methylaminobenzonitrile
4-N-Methylaminobenzonitrile A mixture of 4-aminobenzonitrile (2 g, 17 mmol), dimethyl sulfate (1.66 mL, 17 mmol), potassium carbonate (5 g, 35.7 mmol) and acetone (30 mL) was refluxed for 19 hrs. The acetone was removed and water added. The solution was extracted with dichloromethane and upon drying and solvent removal the crude material was subject to column chromatography (silica, ethyl acetate/pentane, 2.5:7.5, Rf 0.37). Recrystallisation from dichloromethane/pentane gave the title compound as a white crystalline solid (1.16 g, 52%) m.p. 88-91° C. 1H n.m.r.
