Product Description

Trichloroacetonitrile, also known as Trichloromethyl cyanide (CAS: 545-06-2), is a building block employed in a synthesis of trichloroacetimidates by DBU catalyzed addition of allylic alcohols and the subsequent study of the MOM catalyzed aza-Claisen rearrangement. Also used to prepare bistrichloroacetimidates from diols leading to dihyrooxazines via acid catalyzed cyclization.

Trichloroacetonitrile is involved as a reagent in Overman rearrangement, which is used to prepare alylic amines from allylic alcohols. Further, it is utilized in the synthesis of trichloroacetimidates by 1,8-Diazobicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) catalyzed addition of allylic alcohols. It finds application in the study of the methoxy methyl (MOM) catalyzed aza-Claisen rearrangement.

Apollo Scientific is one of the UK's leading chemical manufacturers, suppliers and distributors, with over 25,000 compounds as potential precursors in stock, and more than 3,000 diverse compounds created in our UK labs.
