Participants

Reaction Steps

N-Methyl-N-(4-methylthiobenzyl)amine (4.2 g) and potassium carbonate (5.2 g) are dissolved in a mixture of acetone (20 ml) and water (20 ml), and thereto is added dropwise benzoyl chloride (3.7 ml) gradually under ice cooling. After the mixture is stirred at the same temperature for 30 minutes, the reacting mixture is poured into water, and then extracted with dichloromethane. The extract is washed with aqueous sodium chloride solution, and dried over magnesium sulfate. Dichloromethane is distilled off to give N-benzoyl-N-methyl-N-(4-methylthiobenzyl)amine (6.8 g).
