Sodium Hydroxide → 3,4-Dichloro-N'-hydroxybenzene-1-carboximidamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 3,4-dichlorobenzonitrile (2.00 g, 11.6 mmol), hydroxylamine hydrochloride (1.65 mL, 12.8 mmol) and sodium hydroxide (4.15 mL, 12.4 mmol) in ethanol (40 mL) was stirred at rt for 1 h. The reaction mixture was concentrated and refluxed in hexanes for 30 min and concentrated in vacuo. The product, intermediate 33A was used directly without purification. HPLC/MS (Method C) retention time=1.24 min [M+H]+204.9.
