A GREEN SYNTHETIC PROTOCOL FOR THEPREPARATIONOF 2-HYDROXY-N-PHENYLPROPANAMIDEFROMBIOMASS-DERIVED LACTIC ACID WITHANILINE
We report a green and efficient synthetic protocol for the formation of 2-hydroxy-N-phenylpropanamide (anα- hydroxy amide) from lactic acid derived from biomass and aniline. The reaction occurs under neat, solvent-free andcatalyst-free conditions, produces water as the only by-product and gives an isolated yield of 84%...
