Method for Producing Phenylacetamide Compound

摘要

A method for producing a phenylacetamide compound represented by formula (1):
wherein Q represents a hydrogen atom or a halogen atom, R 2 represents a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, R 4 represents an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, Ar represents an unsubstituted or substituted phenyl group, R 5 represents R 4 when R 2 is a hydrogen atom, and R 5 represents a hydrogen atom when R 2 is an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms; including reacting a phenylacetamide compound represented by formula (2):
wherein Q, R 2 and Ar have the same meanings as defined above; with a dialkyl sulfate represented by formula (3):
wherein R 4 has the same meaning as defined above; in the presence of a base.
