Reaktionsschritte

To a solution of 2.142 g (15.96 mmol) of 4-(2-propenyl)phenol (prepared as in Example 1) in 15 mL of methylene chloride was added 2.351 g (22.19 mmol) of cyanogen bromide (Aldrich). The mixture was cooled in an ice-salt bath and 3 mL (22 mmol) of triethylamine was added dropwise with stirring. The mixture was stirred for an additional 15 minutes. The solvent was removed under vacuum and the mixture was transferred to a separatory funnel with 25 mL of water and 75 mL of petroleum ether (30-60° C. boiling range). The aqueous and organic layers were separated. The organic layer was washed with three 50 mL portions 6N hydrochloric and one 50 mL portion of saturated sodium bicarbonate, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and filtered. The solvent was removed under vacuum to yield 1.668 g (66%) of crude 1-cyanato-4-(2-propenyl)benzene. The product was distilled to yield 1.307 g (51%) of 1-cyanato-4-(2-propenyl)benzene. The structure of the product was verified by IR and NMR spectroscopy. The product can be further purified by passing the product through a silica gel column using 1% toluene in petroleum ether as the solvent system.
