Reaction Steps

Reaction Scheme 4 illustratively shows the preparation of 12-methoxy-N-(phenyl-methyl)dodecanamide wherein 12-methoxydodecanoic acid (8) is treated with oxalyl chloride in anhydrous toluene to form 12-methoxydodecanoyl chloride (9) which in turn reacts with benzylamine in methylene chloride to give the desired fatty acid amide (10).
