Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A 78-g (0.8 mol) sample of diallylamine was added dropwise to a stirred and cooled (dry-ice/acetone bath) solution of 80 g (0.4 mol) bromoacetylbromide in 200 ml methylene dichloride. The reaction mixture was allowed to warm to about 25° C. and stirred overnight. The reaction mixture was then washed with water, aqueous sodium bicarbonate, again with water, dried over magnesium sulfate and evaporated under reduced pressure to give 38 g N,N-diallyl-α-bromoacetamide.
