And the article was published in Advanced Synthesis & Catalysis in 2018. Application of 4746-61-6 The author mentioned the following in the article:
A new synthetic protocol for the synthesis of N-formamide derivatives HC(O)NHR1 [R1 = C6H5, 3-ClC6H4, 3-NO2C6H4, etc.] was developed via N-formylation of primary amines using ethers as a C1 synthon under metal-free reaction conditions. The reaction was proceeded through C-H functionalization, C-O cleavage and C-N bond formation. Mechanistic studies disclosed that the reaction proceeds through a radical pathway. Synthesis of amino ethanones PhNHCH(R4)C(O)R2 [R2 = C6H5, 3-MeC6H4, 4-BrC6H4; R3 = tetrahydrofuran-2-yl, 1,4-dioxan-2-yl] were developed via α-alkylation of α-amino ketones with ethers. By replacing dioxane with Tetramethylethylenediamine (TMEDA) under standard conditions also gave the N-formamide derivatives HC(O)NHR1 in moderate yields. After reading the article, we found that the author used 2-Hydroxy-N-phenylacetamide(cas: 4746-61-6Application of 4746-61-6)
2-Hydroxy-N-phenylacetamide(cas: 4746-61-6) belongs to amides.Application of 4746-61-6 The solubilities of amides and esters are roughly comparable. Typically amides are less soluble than comparable amines and carboxylic acids since these compounds can both donate and accept hydrogen bonds.
