Water → 4-chloro-N'-hydroxybenzenecarboximidamide

Temperature

60 °C

A solution of 50% aqueous sodium hydroxide (2.8 g, 36.34 mmol) was mixed in methanol (20.0 mL). Hydroxylamine hydrochloride (2.55 g, 36.34 mmol) was added and the mixture stirred for 5 minutes. 4-Chlorobenzonitrile (4.0 g, 29.08 mmol) was added and the mixture heated to 60° C. The heterogeneous mixture was stirred at 60° C. for 3 hours. The mixture was poured into water (30 mL) and solids dissolved and a precipitate appeared. The methanol was removed at reduced pressure and remaining solids collected by vacuum filtration. The solids were washed with water (2×10 mL). The 4-chlorobenzamidoxime (4.38 g, 25.6 mmol) was obtained as a white solid. (88% yield).
