Abstract

In a 200-ml. flask fitted with a stirrer and dropping funnel was placed a solution of 25.1 g.(0.309 mole) of dry, CP sodium thiocyanate in 85 ml. of absolute methanol. To this stirred solution 49.8 g.(0.309 mole) of 3-bromocyclohexene was added dropwise over a period of two hours. Little heat was evolved during the course of the reaction. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for an additional two hours. The sodium bromide which ...
