Participants

Reaction Steps

1.00 g of N′-cyano-N-[1-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)ethyl]propaneimidamide was dissolved in 25 ml of dimethylformamide, and 0.16 g of sodium hydride (60% pure in paraffin oil) was added at room temperature. After 30 minutes, 0.63 g of iodomethane was added. The mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight and, after removal of the solvent, purified chromatographically. This gave 0.86 g of N′-cyano-N-[1-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)ethyl]-N-methylpropaneimidamide of logP 2.80 and m.p. 148° C.
