The acetylation of N methylaniline with chloracetyl chloride, catalyzed by triethylamide with mole ratio n (C 6H 5NHCH 3)∶ n (ClCH 2C(O)Cl)∶ n (N(C 2H 5) 3)=1∶1.05∶1, the yield of 2 chloro N methyl N phenyl acetamide(Ⅰ) was 93.8%; Then the esterification of Ⅰ with anhydrous sodium acetate in the presence of phase transfer catalyst tetrabutyl ammonia bromide gave 97.3% yield of 2 acetoxyl N methyl N phenyl acetamide (Ⅱ); The ester interchange of with methanol catalyzed by potassium hydroxide gave 2 hydroxy N methyl N phenyl acetamide (Ⅲ) in 96.4% yield. And the total yield was 88.0%. IR and MS spectroscopy of products were analyzed and their characteristic peaks were assigned. Combining the results of elemental analysis, the molecular structure of Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ was identified.展开更多
