In the present study, few derivatives of acetanilide (IIV)
are synthesized by conventional method as well as
green synthesis method. The synthesized compounds
are characterized by their physical constants and FTIR.
Both the method gives the desired products, but by
applying the green synthesis method, we can able to
avoid the use of acetic anhydride and formation of by
products. Moreover, the atom economy was obtained
in the range of 72% to 82% which indicates the
complete use of chemicals. Thus, concept of green
chemistry can be applied to various synthetic methods.
This may leads to generation of eco friendly synthetic
chemistry.
