| Abstract
| - Synthetic routes to 2-(pyridin-2-yl)-N,N-diphenylacetamide and 2-(6-methylpyridin-2-yl)-N,N-diphenyl-acetamide are described along with results from the chemical oxidation of these compounds with peraceticacid, m-chloroperbenzoic acid, and OXONE. In each case, oxidations generate four products in varyingamounts depending on the oxidant and reaction conditions. Each product has been characterized byspectroscopic methods and the molecular structures of several of the new compounds have been confirmedby X-ray crystallography.
