Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 1.8 g N-cyclohexyl-N'-phenylcarbodiimide [prepared in accordance with Tetrahedron Letters 26, 1661 (1985) in 20 ml of 1,2-dichloroethane is reacted with 0.42 g of cyanamide and the reaction mixture is worked up as described in Example 1. The viscous oily crude product is chromatographed on silica gel (elution with a 4:1 mixture of methylene chloride/diethyl ether), affording a crystalline product which melts at 147°-147.5° C. (recrystallisation from ethyl acetate).
