Participants

Reaction Steps

From the reaction of 3,5-dichloro-4-(trichlorovinyl)toluene (2.15 g), dibenzoyl peroxide (0.33 g), and N-bromosuccinimide (2.05 g) in 85 ml of benzene at reflux as in Example 30, 3,5-dichloro-4-(trichlorovinyl)benzyl bromide is obtained. This material (2.7 g) and sodium azide (0.8 g) in ethanol (25 ml) is heated for 2 hours. The crude product is chromatographed on silica gel to give pure 3,5-dichloro-4-(trichlorovinyl)benzyl azide.
