Ammonia → HCID 538277, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

After 30 minutes, a powdery complex compound produced by mixing acetylacetone (15 g; 10.15 mol) with ammonia was gradually added to the solution. The mixture was stirred for about 1 hour, and then allyl bromide (18.2 g; 0.15 mol) was added to it. After stirring 1 hour, the solution was neutralized with solid ammonium chloride (15 g) and ammonia was removed by vaporiation. The reaction mixture was treated by the conventional method. The resulting oily product was distilled under a reduced pressure to obtain 10.1 g of 7-octene-2,4-dione.
