Abstract
This short note elaborates a concise protocol for the synthesis of two novel vicinal haloethers bearing a malonontrile group, 2-bromo-2-(methoxy(phenyl)methyl)malononitrile (1) and 2-iodo-2-(methoxy(phenyl)methyl)malononitrile (2). The structures of the synthesized compounds were confirmed by 1H, 13C-NMR spectroscopy. The final products indicate that methanol not only acts as solvent but also participates in and dominates the reaction result.
