Reaktionsschritte

Chloroacetyl chloride in diethylether was added dropwise to N-methyloctylamine in diethylether at −2° C. The organic solution was returned to room temperature, followed by stirring for 3 hours. The resulting solution was successively washed with an aqueous 1 mol/L hydrochloric acid solution and water, and then dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. After removal the solvent under vacuum, the residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (hexane:ethyl acetate=23:2) to give N-methyl-N-octyl-chloroacetamide (yield: 66.4%).
