Procedure

Vinylbenzyl isothiocyanate was prepared in the following manner. 76 g (0.5 moles) of vinylbenzyl chloride were dissolved in 300 ml of dimethylformamide (DMF). To this solution were added 56 g (0.575 moles) of potassium thiocyanate and 28 g (0.187 moles) of sodium iodide. The mixture was heated for 30 minutes at 150°C and then the major portion of DMF was flashed off with a water aspirator vacuum. The solid flask residue was extracted with 750 ml of diethyl ether. The filtered diethyl ether phase yielded 80 g of yellowish liquid. Vacuum distillation gave 30 g (35% yield) of pale yellow vinylbenzyl isothiocyanate liquid, ##SPC9##
