Abstract

With N-chlorosuccinimide as the chlorinating source, the dichlorination of isonitriles has been achieved to afford N-phenyldichloroimide compounds under mild and convenient conditions. The optimized reaction conditions were established through systematic investigations of the effect of solvents, temperature, time, chlorinating sources and their dosages in the reaction. The reaction exhibits good compatibility of various substrates, and a variety of isonitriles with different substituted patterns can undergo the dichlorination smoothly and furnish products with high yields of up to 93%.
