Sodium Hydroxide → alpha-Phenyl-2-pyridineacetamide

참여 물질

반응 단계

A solution of (RS)-phenyl-pyridin-2-yl-acetonitrile (0.928 g, 4.80 mmol) in 5 ml of conc. sulfuric acid was stirred overnight at room temperature. The mixture is poured on 100 g of ice, the pH is adjusted to 8-9 by addition of 28% sodium hydroxide solution and the product is extracted with ethyl acetate/water. After drying (MgSO4) and concentration, the crude material is purified by flash chromatography on silicagel using ethyl acetate as eluant to yield 0.878 g (4.14 mmol, 86%) of (RS)-phenyl-pyridin-2-yl-acetamide as a white solid, m.p. 134° C. and MS: m/e=213.2 (M+H+).
