Phenyl isocyanate → HCID 15053430, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A stirred slurry of 6.2 g (0.02 mole) of 3-[4-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxy]azetidine oxalate and 2.62 g (0.022 mole) of phenyl isocyanate in 60 ml of tetrahydrofuran was treated with 5 ml of triethylamine and stirring continued for 16 hr. The reaction mixture was diluted with water until an oil separated. The tetrahydrofuran-water portion was decanted and the residue solidified on standing. Recrystallization from ethanol-water yielded 3.5 g (53.4%) of fine white crystals, m.p. 174.5°-176° C.
