Benzoyl chloride → N-(2-Phenylpropan-2-yl)benzamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

In a similar manner to Step 1 of Example 16, benzoyl chloride (10.0 g, 71.1 mmol) was dissolved in dichloromethane (200 mL), and the solution was treated with cumylamine (11.3 mL, 78.3 mmol), triethylamine (14.9 mL, 107 mmol) and DMAP (870 mg, 7.11 mmol), followed by purification by slurry using diisopropylether to obtain N-(1-methyl-1-phenylethyl)benzamide (16.6 g, yield 98%).
