8. General procedure for the preparation of N%-tert-butyl-
N%-substituted benzoyl-N-(substituted phenyl)aminocar-
bonylhydrazines (6). To a stirred solution of the N-tert-
butyl-N-substituted benzoylhydrazine (5) (2.17 mmol) in
1,2-dichloroethane (10 mL) was added dropwise a solu-
tion of a substituted phenylisocyanate (2.17 mmol) in
1,2-dichloroethane (5 mL) at room temperature. After the
addition, the resulting mixture was stirred at reflux tem-
perature. The reaction was monitored by TLC and
stopped after complete consumption of 5. The reaction
mixture was diluted with petroleum ether (60–90°C) and
filtered to afford a white solid. The crude solid was
recrystallised from dimethylformamide to obtain an ana-
lytical sample of 6. Compound 6f (Xn=3,5-Me2, Yn=4-
Cl): yield 87%; mp 256–257°C; IR (KBr) w/cm−1: 3343,

9. General procedure for the preparation of the compounds
(7). N%-tert-Butyl-N%-substituted benzoyl-N-(substituted
phenyl)aminocarbonylhydrazine (6) (3.27 mmol) and oxa-
lyl chloride (0.50 g) were dissolved in 25 mL of 1,2-
dichloroethane and boiled for 24 hr. The solvent was
removed under vacuum, and the residue was purified by
column chromatography on silica gel using a mixture of
petroleum ether (60–90°C) and ethyl acetate as the eluent.
Finally, the colourless crystalline (7) was obtained. Com-
pound 7m (Xn=H, Yn=Cl): yield 71%; mp 124–126°C;
