Reaction Steps

1.19 g phenyl isocyanate was reacted with 0.6 g acetic acid in a 1:1 molar ratio in the presence of dibutyltin dichloride in methylene chloride (20 parts). The molar ratio of dibutyltin dichloride to phenyl isocyanate was 1:100. The reaction, product isolation and analysis were conducted as in Example 1. A 97.0% yield of acetanilide was obtained (1.20 g).
