Abstract

In early syntheses, 1,3-dioxolane 1 was used in reactions with primary amines in order to prepare monoalkyl amide derivatives. [8] Herein we describe the preparation of N,N-dialkylamides of glycolic acid. Amides 2a-g have been synthesized by the reaction of 1,3-dioxolane 1 with an excess of the appropriate amine (Scheme [2] ). ... The reactions were carried out in refluxing toluene over 10-14 hours. Analytically pure samples were obtained after distillation (2a-e ...
