Feng, Chengliang;Yan, Bin;Yin, Guibo;Chen, Junqing;Ji, Min published 《Fe(ClO4)3·H2O-Catalyzed Ritter Reaction: A Convenient Synthesis of Amides from Esters and Nitriles》. The research results were published in《Synlett》 in 2018.Product Details of 93-92-5 The article conveys some information:
An efficient and inexpensive method was developed for the synthesis of N-substituted amides RC(O)NHR1 [R = Me, cyclopropyl, Ph, etc.; R1 = t-Bu, c-hexyl, Bn, etc.] via Fe(ClO4)3·H2O-catalyzed Ritter reaction of nitriles with esters. Fe(ClO4)3·H2O was an economically efficient catalyst for Ritter reaction under solvent-free conditions and provided the corresponding amides in high to excellent yields. And 1-Phenylethyl acetate (cas: 93-92-5) was used in the research process.
1-Phenylethyl acetate(cas:93-92-5) is a carboxylic ester. Product Details of 93-92-5 It may be prepared by acetylation of methyl phenyl carbinol; from benzaldehyde by reacting with magnesium methyl bromide and subsequent acetylation; from 1-bromoethylbenzene and silver acetate in acetic acid.
