Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of cyanuric chloride (0.2 mol, 36.8 g) in acetone (300 ml) is introduced dropwise into crushed ice (100 g) in a round-bottom flask, with vigorous stirring, followed by a solution of 2-ethylhexylamine in acetone (100 ml), while maintaining the temperature between 0° and 5° C., and finally a solution of sodium carbonate (11.2 g, 0.1 mol) in 300 ml of water. The mixture is left stirring for one hour at 0°-5° C. The oil is extracted with dichloromethane, the organic phase is washed with water and dried over sodium sulphate. After evaporation of the solvent, 2-(2-ethylhexylamino)-4,6-dichloro-s-triazine (52 g, yield=95%) having the following characteristics, is obtained:
