N-bromobutanimide → HCID 13232346, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

104 g of E-1-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-2-(4-chlorophenyl)-prop-1-ene were refluxed with 62.3 g of N-bromosuccinimide and 5 g of 2,2'-azoisobutyrodinitrile in 1 liter of carbon tetrachloride, the precipitated succinimide was filtered off and the filtrate was evaporated down under reduced pressure. Treatment of the residue with methanol gives 91.5 g (69.4%) of Z-1-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-2-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-bromoprop-1-ene of melting point 128° C.
