Reaction Steps
A 300 mL autoclave was charged with acetamide (VII) (11.8 g, 0.2 mole), 95% paraformaldehyde (13.6 g, 0.43 mole), water (12.9 g, 0.72 mole), 37% HCl (1.8 g, 0.018 mole), DME (90 mL), and Co2(CO)8 (4.1 g, 0.012 mole) and pressurized to 1500 psi (10,345 kPa) CO at 25° C. This mixture was heated to 110° C. for 30 minutes. HPLC analysis of this stream gave an 87% yield of (XVI), 0.5% iminodiacetic acid (XIV), and 4.0% N-acetylglycine (XVIII).
