Ammonium Hydroxide → HCID 15053447, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 5.6 g (0.02 mole) of 3-(3,4-dichlorophenoxy)-1-azetidinecarbonyl chloride in 20 ml of tetrahydrofuran was treated while stirring with 3 ml (0.04 mole) of 57% ammonium hydroxide. After stirring for 18 hr, the reaction mixture was diluted with 200 ml of water and the solid which separated was collected by filtration, 6.6 g. Recrystallization from ethanol-water yielded 3.0 g of white granular crystals, m.p. 179°-184° C. A second recrystallization from isopropanol yielded 2.7 g (51.7%) of fine white crystals, m.p. 185°-187° C.
