Reaktionsschritte

A solution of aniline (9.31 g, 100 mmol) and triethylamine (15.2 g, 150 mmol) in THF (150 mL) is cooled to −40° C. before chloroacetic acid chloride (11.3 g, 100 mmol) is slowly added in portions such that the temperature does not rise above 0° C. After completion of the addition, the brown suspension is stirred at rt for 1 h. The dark purple mixture is poured onto water (300 mL) and extracted twice with EA (300 mL). The organic extracts are washed with sat. aq. NaHCO3, 0.5 N aq. HCl, followed by water, and evaporated. The brown residue is suspended in diethyl ether, filtered off, washed with additional diethyl ether and dried under high vacuum to give 2-chloro-N-phenyl-acetamide. LC-MS: tR=0.75 min, [M+1]+=170, 1H NMR (CDCl3): δ 8.22 (s br, 1H), 7.56-7.51 (m, 2H), 7.40-7.24 (m, 2H), 7.20-7.14 (m, 1H), 4.20 (s, 2H).
