Trimethylsilyl cyanide → HCID 22443359, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Following a procedure similar to that described in Example 1(i), but using 4-methylthiobenzaldehyde and 4-fluoroaniline as starting materials, 4-fluoro-N-(4-methylthiobenzylidene)aniline was obtained in a yield of 89%. This aniline compound and trimethylsilyl cyanide were then reacted together in a similar manner to that described in Example 1(ii), to give the title compound as a slightly yellow powder (yield 47%).
