Description

General description

2-Chloro-N-phenylacetamide, also known as chloroacetanilide, can be prepared by reacting aniline with chloroacetylchloride in glacial acetic acid. The analysis of its crystal structure shows the presence of N-H...O hydrogen bonds between the molecules.

Application

2-Chloro-N-phenylacetamide may be used in the preparation of N,N′-(ethane-1,2-diyl)bis(2-(2-oxo-2-(phenylamino)ethoxy)benzamide), an amide podand. It may also be used to prepare phenylacetamide-based Schiff base ligands by reacting with corresponding hydrazones.
