A NEW METHOD OF PREPARING METATOLUIDINE.

By OSKAR WIDMAN.

The author adds in small portions five parts metanitro-benzaldehyd to nine

parts of phosphorus pentachloride, avoiding a great rise of temperature.

When the reaction is over, the whole is poured into excess of cold water,

quickly washed a few times with cold water, and dissolved in alcohol. After

the first crystallization the compound melts at 65°, and is perfectly pure.
