Benzoyl chloride → Benzanilide

Participants

Reaction Steps

830 mg (2.44 mmole) of the aniline compound obtained in step 1 was dissolved in 10 mL of pyridine, 0.340 mL (2.93 mmoles) of benzoylchloride was added, and the mixture was stirred overnight at room temperature. When the reaction had ended, the solvent was removed under reduced pressure. Ethyl acetate and 1N HCl aqueous solution were added to the residue. The mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The obtained organic layer was washed with saturated brine and dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure, yielding 1.11 g of N-benzoylaniline compound.
