Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

Under ice-cooling, N,O-dimethylhydroxylamine hydrochloride (3.42 g) was added to a mixture of (2-chlorophenyl)acetic acid (3.41 g) and WSCD (2.05 g) in dichloromethane (30 mL). The mixture was stirred at 0-10° C. for an hour and at 20-25° C. for 20 hours, washed with water, dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure to give a residue. The residue was purified by silica gel (chromatorex NH) (hexane-AcOEt 50:50 v/v) to give 2-(2-chlorophenyl)-N-methoxy-N-methylacetamide as oil (3.99 g).
