Methacrylamide → 2-Isopropenyloxazoline-4,5-dione hydrochloride

Participants

Reaction Steps

In Example 4, methacrylamide was added portionwise to oxalyl chloride while stirring, whereby the reaction proceeded with generation of heat. At the stage that addition of 10 g of methacrylamide was completed, the reaction mixture was solidified. Dichloroethane (100 ml) was added thereto. The produced crystals were collected by filtration, washed and dried under reduced pressure to give 2-isopropenyloxazoline-4,5-dione hydrochloride.
