Application

Acetanilide may be used in the synthesis of ortho-haloacetanilides via regioselective C-H functionalization/halogenation reaction in the presence of Pd(OAc)2 and Cu(OAc)2 catalyst. It may be used in the preparation of chlorosubstituted acetanilides.

General description

Acetanilide is an aniline derivative. Crystal structure of acetanillide has been studied by X-ray diffraction. It crystallizes in orthorhombic system having space group of Pbca. Its photolysis has been studied in the presence of β-cyclodextrin (cycloheptaamylose). Aminoacetophenone derivatives are obtained by the Fries rearrangement of acetanilide in the presence zeolites Y and β.
