To a solution of 2-n-propylaniline (8.91 g, 66 mmol) and Et3N (14 mL, 106 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (60 mL) was added acetic anhydride (10.9 mL, 99 mmol) dropwise. The resulting mixture was allowed to stir at room temp. overnight, then was treated with a 1N HCl solution (40 mL). The acidic mixture was extracted with CH2Cl2 (2×30 mL). The combined organic layers were sequentially washed with H2O (40 mL), a 1N NaOH solution (40 mL), H2O (40 mL) and a saturated NaCl solution (40 mL), dried (Na2SO4), and concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting powder was purified by crystalization (EtOAc) to give 2-n-propylacetanilide as white needles (7.85 g, 67%). TLC (30% EtOAc/hex) Rf0.37.
