General description

2-Chloroacetamide, also known as alpha-Chloroacetamide, is a chlorinated organic compound commonly used as a precursor in the synthesis of amides and thioamides.

Application

2-Chloroacetamidecan be used as a reactant to synthesize:
  • 2-Amino-4-chloroquinolines via o-alkylation of 4-chloro-1H-quinolin-2-ones and subsequent Smiles rearrangement.
  • 2-(Formylaryloxy)acetamides by reacting with hydroxybenzaldehydes in the presence of potassium carbonate as a base.
  • Biarylamine derivatives via aluminum triflate-catalyzed direct amination of benzhydrols.
