Methyl Isocyanate → 2,4-Dihydroxy-3,5-dibromo-benzaldoxime tris-(methylcarbamate)

Participants

Reaction Steps

6 g of 3,5-dibromo-2,4-dihydroxy-benzaldoxime were dissolved in 50 ml of dimethylsulfoxide and a little diazabicyclooctane was added. 4 ml of methyl isocyanate were now added with cooling (<20° C.) and stirring and the mixture was then stirred thoroughly at room temperature for 12 hours. The reaction mixture was poured into ice-water and salted out. The suspension was filtered with suction, the residue was washed with water and dissolved in a little dimethylformamide and active charcoal was added to the solution.
