Ammonia → 2-Amino-4-(3-chloropropyl)-6-trichloromethyl-1,3,5-triazine

Participants

Reaction Steps

102.3 g of 2-(3-chloropropyl)-4,6-bis-(trichloromethyl)-1,3,5-triazine are dissolved in 100 ml of tetrahydrofuran, and to this solution are added, whilst it is being stirred at room temperature, 400 ml of concentrated aqueous ammonia solution. After 30 minutes are added 500 ml of water, and the reaction mixture is extracted twice with 100 ml of ether each time. The ether phases are dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated by evaporation to yield 68.3 g of the title product as light-brown oil.
