Prepared by mononilrating toluene, as a 40% constituent of the mixture of isomers. It is reduced to p-toluidine with iron and hydrochloric acid. 

Required />-Toluidine, 24 g. hydrochloric acid, 55 ml. sodium nitrite, 17 g. 

Physical properties. Majority are liquids except p toluidine and 1- and 2-naphthylamine. All are colourless when pure, but rapidly darken on exposure to air and light. All are very sparingly soluble in water, but dissolve readily in dilute mineral acids (except the naphthyl-amines, which are only moderately soluble in adds). They form colourless crystalline salts e.g., CjHjNH2,HCl) which are soluble in water these aqueous solutions usually have an add reaction owing to hydrolysis, and give the reactions of both the amine and the acid from which they are derived. Addition of alkali to the acid solution liberates the amine. 

Anilides and p-toluidides may also be prepared directly from the acide% by heating them with aniline or p toluidine respectively ... 

Place 1 0 g. of the monobasic acid and 2 g. of aniline or p-toluidine in a dry test-tube, attach a short air condenser and heat the mixture in an oil bath at 140-160° for 2 hours do not reflux too vigorously an acid that boils below this temperature range and only allow steam to escape from the top of the condenser. For a sodium salt, use the proportions of 1 g. of salt to 1 5 g. of the base. If the acid is dibasic, employ double the quantity of amine and a reaction temperature of 180-200° incidentally, the procedure is recommended for dibasic acids since the latter frequently give anhydrides with thionyl chloride. Powder the cold reaction mixture, triturate it with 20-30 ml. of 10 per cent, hydrochloric acid, and recrystallise from dilute alcohol. 

The above simple experiments illustrate the more important properties of the anhydrides of aliphatic acids. For their characterisation, the reaction with aniline or p-toluidine is frequently employed. Alternatively, the anhydride may be hydrolysed with dilute alkali as detailed under Acid Chlorides, Section 111,88, and the resulting acid characterised as in Section 111,85. 

Anilides or p-toluidides of acids from esters. Esters are converted into the corresponding anilides or p-toluidides by treatment with anilino- or with p-toluidino-magnesium bromide, which are readily obtained from any simple Grignard reagent and aniline or p-toluidine ... 

Dissolve 1 g. of the sulphonic acid or its sodium salt in the minimum volume of boiling water and add a saturated aqueous solution of 1 g. of p-toluidine hydrochloride. Cool, Alter off the precipitate of the p-tolu-idine salt, and recrystallise it from hot water or from dilute ethanol. 

Boil a mixture of 10 g. (10 ml.) of o-toluidine and 38 g. (35 ml.) of acetic anhydride in a 75 or 100 ml. Claisen flask fitted with a reflux condenser (Fig. Ill, 28, 1, but with trap replaced by a calcium chloride or cotton wool guard tube) for 1 hour. Arrange the flask for distillation under reduced pressure (compare Fig. II, 20, 1) and distil acetic acid and the excess of acetic anhydride pass over first, followed by the diacetyl derivative at 152-153°/20 mm, some mono-acetyl-o-toluidine (1-2 g.) remains in the flask. The yield of diacetyl-o-toluidine is 14-15 g, it is a colourless, somewhat unstable hquid, which slowly sohdifies to yield crystals, m.p. 18°, To prepare the (mono-) acetyl-o-toluidine, warm a mixture of 5 g. 

Dissolve 36 g. of p-toluidine in 85 ml. of concentrated hydrochloric acid and 85 ml. of water contained in a 750 ml. conical flask or beaker. Cool the mixture to 0° in an ice-salt bath with vigorous stirring or shaking and the addition of a httle crushed ice. The salt, p-toluidine hydrochloride, will separate as a finely-divided crystalline precipitate. Add during 10-15 minutes a solution of 24 g. of sodium nitrite in 50 ml. of water (1) shake or stir the solution well during the diazotisation, and keep the mixture at a temperature of 0-5° by the addition of a httle crushed ice from time to time. The hydrochloride wUl dissolve as the very soluble diazonium salt is formed when ah the nitrite solution has been introduced, the solution should contain a trace of free nitrous acid. Test with potassium iodide - starch paper (see Section IV,60). 

In a 1 litre flask mix 53 -5 g. of p-toluidine and 400 ml. of water, and then add cautiously 98 g. (53 6 ml.) of concentrated sulphuric acid warm until the p-toluidine dissolves. Cool the flask in a bath of ice and salt to 0-5° add about 100 g. of crushed ice to the contents of the flask in order to accelerate the cooling. Add slowly and with frequent shaking a solution of 35 g. of sodium nitrite in 60 ml. of water until a slight excess of sodium nitrite is present (.see Section IV,60) keep the temperature of the mixture below 10°. 

In a 1 or 1-5 htre round-bottomed flask prepare a solution of 53-5 g. of o-toluidine in 170 ml. of 48 per cent, hydrobromic acid, cool to 5° by immersion in a bath of ice and salt. Diazotise by the gradual addition of a solution of 36 -5 g. of sodium nitrite in 50 ml. of water stopper the flask after each addition and shake until all red fumes are absorbed. Keep the temperature between 5° and 10°. When the diazotisation is complete, add 2 g. of copper powder or copper bronze, attach a reflux condenser to the flask, and heat very cautiously on a water bath. Immediately evolution of gas occurs, cool the flask in crushed ice unless the... 

A good 3ueld of 5-iodo-2-aminotoluene may be obtained by intimately mixing o-toluidine hydrochloride, iodine and calcium carbonate, and then adding water to the mixture. The liberated hydriodic acid reacts at once with the Calcium carbonate and the lij driodide of the base is not formed. 

Prepare o-tolunitrile, b.p. 94-96°/20 mm., from o-toluidine following the method given in Section IV,66 under -Toluidine. Also prepare 600 g. of 75 per cent, sulphuric acid by adding 450 g, (245 ml.) of con-... 

Acryhc stmctural adhesives have been modified by elastomers in order to obtain a phase-separated, toughened system. A significant contribution in this technology has been made in which acryhc adhesives were modified by the addition of chlorosulfonated polyethylene to obtain a phase-separated stmctural adhesive (11). Such adhesives also contain methyl methacrylate, glacial methacrylic acid, and cross-linkers such as ethylene glycol dimethacrylate [97-90-5]. The polymerization initiation system, which includes cumene hydroperoxide, N,1S7-dimethyl- -toluidine, and saccharin, can be apphed to the adherend surface as a primer, or it can be formulated as the second part of a two-part adhesive. Modification of cyanoacrylates using elastomers has also been attempted copolymers of acrylonitrile, butadiene, and styrene ethylene copolymers with methylacrylate or copolymers of methacrylates with butadiene and styrene have been used. However, because of the extreme reactivity of the monomer, modification of cyanoacrylate adhesives is very difficult and material purity is essential in order to be able to modify the cyanoacrylate without causing premature reaction.
