Abstract

R'CX+ HCN (CH&--t RCOCH+ X@(2) little information on the reaction of chloroformates with amides.'Bredereck3v4 postulates an intermediate analogous to the product in eq 2 in the formation of tris (formy1amino) methane from ethyl chloroformate and formamide and also in the amide-catalyzed rearrangement of alkyl cholorformates to alkyl chlorides. Hall2 also attributes the conductivity of ethyl chloroformate solutions in dimethylformamide to this ...
