General description

2′-Aminoacetanilide (2-aminoacetanilide, o-aminoacetanilide) can be prepared by the catalytic hydrogenation of 2-nitroacetanilide using 10%Pd/C (palladium/carbon).

Application

2′-Aminoacetanilide may be used in the preparation of:
  • 2-Methylbenzimidazole.
  • N-(2-(1,3-Dimethyl-2,4-dioxo-5-phenyl-3,4-dihydro-1H-pyrrolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-6(2H)-yl)phenyl)-5-methylfuran-2-carboxamide, a potent cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) inhibitor.
  • Azobenzothiazole dyes, N-[2-(6-nitrobenzothiazol-2-ylazo)phenyl]acetamide and N-[2-(benzothiazol-2-ylazo)phenyl]acetamide.
