4-Bromoaniline → 4-bromophenylcyanamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of cyanogen bromide (5.0 g, 47 mmol), and 4-bromoaniline (17.8 g, 103.4 mmol) in diethylether (150 mL) was stirred for 3 days under nitrogen atmosphere. The reaction was filtered, and the filtrate was concentrated in vacuo at room temperature to give 4-bromophenylcyanamide (8.5 g, 92%) as an off white solid.
