Chloroacetyl chloride → HCID 54286174, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

1-Amino-1-hydroxyimino-2-methylthioethane (11.32 g, 94.2 mmol) was suspended in dry chloroform (60 mL) under nitrogen. A solution of chloroacetyl chloride (7.5 mL, 94.2 mmol) in chloroform (20 mL) was added dropwise. After stirring for 1 hour, a solution of triethylamine (15.8 mL, 113 mmol) in chloroform (20 mL) was added dropwise. The reaction mixture was stirred for 15 minutes, then washed with water (2×70 mL), dried over sodium sulfate, concentrated in vacuo, and dried under vacuum to yield 11.4 g (62% yield) of 1-amino-1-((chloromethyl)carbonyloxy)imino-2-methylthioethane, as a brown semi-solid.
