N-[2-(Acetyloxy)ethyl]acetamide

Description:

N-[2-(Acetyloxy)ethyl]acetamide, with the CAS number 16180-96-4, is an organic compound characterized by its amide functional group and the presence of an acetyloxy moiety. This substance typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and specific conditions. It is soluble in polar solvents such as water and alcohols, which is indicative of its polar nature due to the presence of both the acetamide and acetyloxy groups. The compound is often used in chemical synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals or other organic compounds. Its structure suggests potential reactivity, particularly in nucleophilic substitution reactions, owing to the presence of the acetyloxy group, which can be hydrolyzed under certain conditions. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with any chemical substance, to ensure proper precautions are taken due to potential irritant properties.
