Reaction Steps

An ice-cooled solution of 5 grams of acetanilide and 15 g. of aluminum chloride in 75 ml. of dichloroethane is treated with 5 g. of benzoyl chloride in portions. The mixture is then heated at 80° C for 3 hours, decomposed with ice and dilute hydrochloric acid and the resulting solid isolated by suction filtration and recrystallized from ethanol:water to give p-benzoylacetanilide.
