Procedure

To a solution of Pyridine (3 mL) and AcCl (1.017 g, 13.043) in DCM (15 mL) was added the solution of 4-nitrobenzenamine (1.5 g, 10.870 mmol) in pyridine (3 mL) at 0° C. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 h. The volatiles were removed under reduced pressure and the residue was washed with water (10 mL×3), dried under reduced pressure to afford N-(4-nitrophenyl)acetamide as yellow powder (1.9 g, yield: 97%).
