Acetone → N-phenylmorpholine-4-carboxamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 0.9 g morpholine with 5 ml aceton was added dropwise during 5 minutes to a suspension of 1.5 g phenylcarbamoyl-benzoic acid sulfimide with 20 ml acetone, under stirring. The reaction mixture was stirred for a further 30 minutes at ambient temperature, then diluted with 150 ml water. Acetone was distilled off, the mixture was cooled, and 0.35 g phenylcarbamoyl-morpholine was isolated by filtration. The white crystalline material melted at 160°-162° C.
