Acetohydrazide → HCID 178475143, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 5.0 g (0.07 mole) acetylhydrazine and 20 ml (28.5 g, 0.16 mole) methyl 2,2,2-trichloroacetimidate was stirred 16 hours at room temperature. The resulting solid was recrystallized from toluene to yield 7.3 g. Addition of petroleum ether to the filtrate gave another 1.5 g. The total yield was 8.8 g (59%; mp 130°-132° C.). An analytical sample (mp 131°-132° C.) was prepared by recrystallization from toluene. The structure was confirmed via infrared and elemental analysis.
