Acrylonitrile → HCID 11728434, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A series of tests was carried out according to the operating method of Example 1, but by modifying the nature of the solvent. These tests were made by dispersing 4 g. of coarse zinc powder in a solution of 100 mg of copper acetate in 30 ml of acid, by varying the latter. The dispersion of the zinc/copper metal pair is cooled to ambient temperature, and a mixture of 23 g. of C6F13I (0.05 mole) and 2.7 g. of acrylonitrile are introduced into the above dispersion, with agitation, during a period of one hour. One hour after termination of the addition of the two reactants, the reaction mixture is washed with water and analyzed by nuclear magentic resonance. The results are indicated in Table I in which the indicated percentages are molar percentages.
