Hydracrylonitrile → Bis(2-cyanoethyl) phosphorochloridite

Participants

Reaction Steps

In the second reaction vessel 3-hydroxypropionitrile (20 mmol) and triethylamine (2.8 mL, 20 mmol) were added to a solution of phosphorus trichloride (10 mmol) in THF (25 mL) under dry nitrogen. The mixture was stirred for 10 min at room temperature to give bis(2-cyanoethyl) phosphorochloridite (28).
