In the course of a study of the condensation of substituted nitrobenzenes with amino alcohols to produce intermediates from which analogs of pentryl can be obtained, the alcohols described below have been prepared and characterized. In these reactions, condensation occurs mainly through the amino group. Condensation through the alcohol group,. to produce substituted amino ethers, is found to occur in some cases.
