How it is made
Allen, US patent 2,615,916 (1952 to Columbia-Southern Chem Corp)... /SRP: A method of separating isopropyl n-phenyl carbamate from its reaction mixture created by reaction of an isopropyl haloformate with aniline in the presence of water and a base at a temperature at which solid isopropyl n-phenyl carbamate is produced, which comprises heating the reaction mixture to a temperature above the melting point of the carbamate but below the temperature at which the water phase in the mixture biols, thereby forming two immiscible liquid layers, separating the layer containing the product, steam dist
