Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

135.03 g of Dimethyl Amine solution is charged at room temperature and cooled to 10±2° C., then Octanoyl Chloride obtained in EXAMPLE 4 is charged at 8 to 12° C. over a period of 2 hours, and the reaction mixture is stirred at 10 to 15° C. for 30 minutes and then stirred at room temperature for 1 hour and the upper organic layer is separated from lower aqueous layer and 29.80 g of Sodium Chloride (20% solution) is added to the organic layer. This organic layer is washed and 9.94 g of Sodium Sulphate is added to the organic layer to take up water, and the mixture is filtered to obtain crude Octanamide.
