Title: prep of n-phenylethanamide
Post by: yellow123 on February 04, 2008, 02:03:47 PM

anybody know the steps for the preparation? i know as far as:

dissolve phenylammonium chloride in water and mix with ethanoic anhydride. add a solution of sodium ethanoate and stir until no more solid precipitate is present. then i'm unsure of what to do next? i know it's something to do with a buchner funnel and heating it and drying it, but just don't know what order or how to word it, any help? thankyou very much for any replies  :)
