Chloroacetaldehyde → HCID 21493045, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

0.01 mole of sulphamide in 5 ml of concentrated hydrochloric acid are added to 0.012 mole of chloroacetaldehyde, at room temperature whilst stirring. After 5 minutes, the precipitate which has formed is filtered off and washed with ice water, dried and recrystallised from acetone/petroleum ether. 3,7-Di-(chloromethyl)-1,5-dithia-2,4,6,8-tetra-aza-cyclooctane-1,1,5,5-tetraoxide is obtained as colourless crystals of melting point 175° C (decomposition) in a yield of 70% of the theoretical yield.
