Abstract Polychlorinated enamidonitrile Cl 2 CÍC (CN) NHCOCHCl 2 readily reacts with primary aromatic amines, dialkylamines, piperidine, and morpholine. The reaction is accompanied by complete elimination of chlorine atoms as chloride ions with formation of 4- cyanooxazoles having the corresponding amine residue in position 5 of the ring and a CHÍN or diaminomethyl moiety in position 2. The structure of 5-arylamino (dialkylamino)-4-cyano ...
