N-acylation of Phenylacetic Acid Amide - Synthesis and Study of Thermodynamic Reaction Characteristics

Abstract

The aim of this study is the synthesis of N-acylated derivatives of phenylacetic acid amide and the investigation of the correlation between product yields and the nature of the acylating agent. The reaction was carried out in an acidic environment, adding acid anhydrides to the substance, which differ in the length and branching of the carbon chain. The resulting products are of considerable interest both as biologically active compounds and as starting materials for the preparation of pyrimidin-4(1)-one derivatives.
