Sodium acetamide

Generation of a carbene.K When the p-tosylhydrazone V is treated with sodium acetamide (aprotic medium) at 175°, 10-carbenabicyclo 5.2.1]decane is formed and undergoes transannular cyclization to give tricyclo[5.2.1.0410]decane (VI) in 87% yield. The high yield in this carbene reaction is attributed to restricted conformational...

Dissolve 36 g. of sodium hydroxide in 160 ml. of water contained in a 500 ml. conical flask, and chill the stirred solution to 0-5° in ice-water. Now add io-8 ml. (32-4 g.) of bromine slowly to the stirred solution exercise care in manipulating liquid bromine ) during this addition the temperature rises slightly, and it should again be reduced to 0-5°. Add a solution of 12 g. of acetamide in 20 ml. of water, in small portions, to the stirred hypobromite solution so that the temperature of the mixture does not exceed 20° the sodium acet-bromoamide is thus obtained in the alkaline solution. Now remove the flask from the ice-water, and set it aside at room temperature for 30 minutes. 

Place 25 g. of dry acetamide in a 350 ml. conical or flat-bottomed flask, and add 69 g. (23 ml.) of bromine (CAUTION ) a deep red liquid is produced. Cool the flask in ice water and add 10 per cent, sodium hydroxide solution (about 210 ml.) in small portions and with vigorous shaking until the solution acquires a pale yellow colour. At this stage the bromoacetamlde is present in the alkaline solution. If any solid should crystallise out, add a little water. 

Place 45 g. of benzamide (Section IV, 188) and 80 g. of phosphorus pentoxide in a 250 ml. Claisen flask (for exact experimeutal details on the handling and weighing out of phosphoric oxide, see under Acetamide, Section 111,111). Mix well. Arrange for distillation (Fig.//, 29, 1 or Fig. II, 20, 1) under reduced pressure use a water pump with an air leak in the system so that a pressure of about 100 mm. is attained. Heat the flask with a free flame until no more liquid distils the nitrile will pass over at 126-130°/100 mm. Wash the distillate with a little sodium carbonate solution, then with water, and dry over anhydrous calcium chloride or magnesium sulphate. Distil under normal pressure (Fig. II, 13, 2 or II, 13, 6) from a 50 ml. flask the benzonitrile passes over as a colourless liquid at 188-189° (compare Section IV,66). The yield is 28 g. 

Nitrosomethylurea. Acetamide method. To a solution of 59 g. of acetamide in 88 g. (28 ml.) of bromine (1) in a 4-litre beaker add dropwise, with hand stining, a solution of 40 g. of sodium hydroxide in 160 ml. of water. Heat the resulting yellow reaction mixture on a steam bath until eflfervescence sets in (2), after which continue the heating for 2-3 minutes. CrystaUisation of the product from the yellow or red coloured solution usually commences immediately. Cool in an ice bath for 1-2 hours, collect the product by suction filtration, wash with a little ice-cold water, and dry in the air. The yield of colourless acetylmethylurea, m.p. 178-180°, is 50 g.

Dimethylformamide [68-12-2] (DME) and dimethyl sulfoxide [67-68-5] (DMSO) are the most commonly used commercial organic solvents, although polymerizations ia y-butyrolactoae, ethyleae carboaate, and dimethyl acetamide [127-19-5] (DMAC) are reported ia the hterature. Examples of suitable inorganic salts are aqueous solutioas of ziac chloride and aqueous sodium thiocyanate solutions. The homogeneous solution polymerization of acrylonitrile foUows the conventional kinetic scheme developed for vinyl monomers (12) (see Polymers). 

The methyl ethyl ketazine forms an immiscible upper organic layer easily removed by decantation. The lower, aqueous phase, containing acetamide and sodium phosphate, is concentrated to remove water formed in the reaction and is then recycled to the reactor after a purge of water-soluble impurities. Organic by-products are separated from the ketazine layer by distillation. The purified ketazine is then hydrolyzed under pressure (0.2—1.5 MPa (2—15 atm)) to give aqueous hydrazine and methyl ethyl ketone overhead, which is recycled (122). The aqueous hydrazine is concentrated in a final distillation column. 

Nucleophilic Substitution Route. Commercial synthesis of poly(arylethersulfone)s is accompHshed almost exclusively via the nucleophilic substitution polycondensation route. This synthesis route, discovered at Union Carbide in the early 1960s (3,4), involves reaction of the bisphenol of choice with 4,4 -dichlorodiphenylsulfone in a dipolar aprotic solvent in the presence of an alkaUbase. Examples of dipolar aprotic solvents include A/-methyl-2-pyrrohdinone (NMP), dimethyl acetamide (DMAc), sulfolane, and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). Examples of suitable bases are sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, and potassium carbonate. In the case of polysulfone (PSE) synthesis, the reaction is a two-step process in which the dialkah metal salt of bisphenol A (1) is first formed in situ from bisphenol A [80-05-7] by reaction with the base (eg, two molar equivalents of NaOH),... 

Several triazinyl ketones isomerize to 4-acetamidopyrimidines. TTiis is seen in the C-acylation of 2,4,6-trimethyl-l,3,5-triazine (708) with benzoyl chloride in the presence of sodium amide to give the ketone (709) which undergoes a Dimroth-like rearrangement in boiling water to afford A-(2-methyl-6-phenylpyrimidin-4-yl)acetamide (710) it can be seen that the acylating agent determines the identity of the 6-substituent 64JHC145). 

Amino-5-nitrosopyrimidines also condense with benzoylacetonitrile, phenacyl-pyridinium bromide and acetonylpyridinium chloride in the presence of sodium cyanide to produce. 7-amino-6-pteridinyl ketones (63JOC1197). Pteridine syntheses from pyridinium salts are not limited to the preparation of pteridyl ketones since pyridinium acetamide... 

In a 1-1, three-necked, round-bottomed flask equipped with a calcium chloride drying tube, a mechanical stirrer, and a ground-glass stopper are placed 28.2 g. (0.184 mole) of freshly distilled methyl bromoacetate, 500 ml. of anhydrous iV,iV-dimethy]acetamide (Note 1), and 20.0 g, (0.168 mole) of methyl nitroacetate (Note 2). The solution is stirred vigorously while 146 ml. (0.168 mole) of 1.15N sodium methoxide in... 

Reaction.—i. Boil a small quantity of acetamide with caustic soda solution. Ammonia is evolved, and sodium acetate is found in solution, CHg.CONHj + NaOH = CH3.CO.ONa - - NH-. See Appendix, p. 243. 

Preparation of 7-(D-0t-phenyigiycyiamido)-3-chioro-3-cephem-4-carboxyiic acid To a suspension of 280 mg (1.2 mmol) of 7-amino-3-chloro-3-cephem-4-carboxylic acid in 14 ml of acetonitrile was added with stirring at room temperature 0.5 ml of N, 0-bis-(trimethylsilyl)acetamide to form the soluble disilylmethyl derivative thereof. The solution was cooled to 0°C and was slowly added to a solution of the mixed anhydride formed by reacting 408 mg (1.5 mmol) of methyl-3-a-carboxybenzylaminocrotonate sodium salt with 161 mg (1.7 mmol) of methyl chloroformate in the presence to 2 drops of N, N-dimethylbenzyl amine in 7 ml of acetonitrile. 

The organic phase is dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, the dichloroethane is evaporated off and the residue is crystallized from ethyl alcohol (95%). The product is dried in the oven and there is thus obtained about 800 grams (yield 90%) of the N-(2,5-diethoxyphenyl)-4-butoxy phenoxy acetamide, MP 101°C. 

By heating the diacetyl compound with sodium hydroxide solution partial saponification of the acetyl groups takes place. 25.6 grams of diacetyl compound are heated to boiling for some hours with 100 cc of 2 N sodium hydroxide solution. The precipitate produced by acidification of the solution with acetic acid is filtered off and treated with dilute sodium carbonate solution. The 4-aminobenzene-sulfonacetylamide passes into solution while the simultaneously formed 4-acetylaminobenzene-sulfonamide remains undissolved. It is filtered with suction and the filtrate again acidified with acetic acid. The 4-aminobenzene-sulfon-acetamide separates out and is recrystallized from water. It forms colorless lustrous rhombic crystals Of MP 1B1°C.
