Morpholine → 2-Morpholin-4-yl-N-(4-nitro-phenyl)-acetamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

2.6 g (30 mmol) of morpholine and 4.2 g (30 mmol) of potassium carbonate are suspended in 120 ml of acetone. 5.3 g (20 mmol) of N-bromoacetyl-4-nitro-aniline, dissolved in 80 ml of acetone, are added dropwise over a period of 20 minutes and then stirred for 2 hours at ambient temperature. The precipitate is filtered off and the solvent is eliminated in vacuo. The residue is suspended with water. The precipitate is suction filtered and dried in a drying cupboard.
