Participants

Reaction Steps

Thionyl chloride was dropped to ethanol and the mixture was stirred for 2 hours. Then, N-n-octanoylanthranilic acid was added to the mixture and reaction was allowed to proceed for 3 days at the room temperature. After the reaction, the solvent was removed and ethyl N-n-octanoylanthranilate was obtained from the remaining reactant after the purification by column chromatography with the yield of 89.2%.
