Methyl iodide → HCID 21506179, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Methyl iodide (99.4 g.) is added to a solution of ammonium 2-aminophenyl-dithiocarbamate (141 g.) in water (1050 cc.), whilst keeping the temperature at about 20° C. The mixture is stirred for a further hour after the end of the exothermic reaction. The precipitate obtained is filtered off and is then recrystallized moist from ethanol. Methyl 2-aminophenyl-dithiocarbamate (125 g.), m.p. 114° C., is thus obtained.
