1 mole of aniline was dissolved in 200 mL acetonitrile, and 0.7 mole 1,3-dichloropropene was added. The reaction was heated to reflux overnight with mechanical stirring. The reaction was then filtered and concentrated. Upon distillation, N-(3-chloro-2-propenyl)aniline was obtained as a yellow solid. The main distillation cut contained 65% N-(3-chloro-2-propenyl)aniline by weight.
