Acetanilides are alkylated at the nitrogen atom under the conditions of phase-transfer catalysis. For the case of the reaction of acetanilides with allyl acetate the authors showed that 2-alkenyl esters can be used for the alkylation of acetanilides under the conditions of phase-transfer catalysis in the presence of the complexes of zero valent palladium. N-Acetylskatole was obtained with a yield of 50% from N-allyl-2-bromoacetanilide by intramolecular cyclization in the presence of Od(OAc)/sub 2/ as catalyst.
