Abstract

Benzoylation by the Schotten - Baumann method is a useful way to identify and characterize aromatic amines, phenols, sugars, etc. However, for best results, the method requires vigorous shaking in well-stoppered vessels with dropwise addition of benzoyl chloride (1). The fact that benzoyl chloride is a lachrymator may require that these reactions be done outside the laboratory environment in open areas. We report here a convenient procedure for the microscale benzoylation of aromatic amines and phenols.
