2-Chloro-N-(2-ethyl-6-methylphenyl)acetamide

N-(2-ethyl-6-methylphenyl)-2-chloroacetamide is an aromatic amide obtained by formal condensation of the carboxy group of chloroacetic acid with the amnio group of 2-ethyl-6-methylaniline. It is an aromatic amide and an organochlorine compound. It derives from a chloroacetic acid.

The preparation method is to add xylene and chloroacetic acid into the reaction kettle, heat to dissolve and move to another reaction kettle, add 2-methyl-6-ethylaniline, stir and mix well, add phosphorus trichloride dropwise, and warm up React, add water, stand still for separation, the phosphorous acid waste liquid is sent to the three wastes for treatment, the material liquid is transferred to the crystallization kettle for crystallization, and the product is filtered.

N-(2-methyl-6-ethyl)phenylchloroacetamide is an intermediate of the herbicides acetochlor, metolachlor, and meprochlor.
