Procedure

4,698 g (0.03 mol) of p-methoxybenzyl chloride and 3,638 g (0.03 mol) of N,N-dimethylaniline were reacted in 40 ml of methanol at 40° C. for 3 days. After the reaction, the solvent was evaporated in vacuo and ether/water was added to the residue to extract unreacted reactans in the etherial layer. To the aquous layer containing the ammonium chloride was added 7.77 g (0.03 mol) of sodium hexafluoroantimonate. The resulting crystals were suction filtered, washed and dried to give the titled compound.
