Preparation of Methyl benzeneacetate: it can be prepared by benzene acetonitrile through hydrolysis esterification. This reaction will need reagent methanol and sulfuric acid. You should drop benzene acetonitrile in 1.5 hours at the temperature of 95 °C. The reaction time is 6 hours by heating at reaction temperature of 95-100 °C. Then go through the operation of colling, washing, discarding the water layer, fractionating to get the products. The yield is about 80%.

Uses of Methyl benzeneacetate: it can be used to modulate floral flavor. And it can be used for organic synthesis and used to manufacture atropine and anisodamine. In addition, it can react with benzaldehyde to Prepare 3-hydroxy-2,3-diphenyl-propionic acid methyl ester. This reaction will need reagent C6H5CHBrCO2CH3 and solvent dimethylformamide. The yield is about 35%.
