Synthese und Eigenschaften von 2-Cyanimino-l,3-dimethylimidazolin [1] / Synthesis and Properties of 2-Cyanimino-l,3-dimethylimidazoline [1]

Abstract

2-Cyanimino-1,3-dimethylimidazoline (3, ImNCN) is obtained from 1,3-dimethyl-2-iminoimidazoline (2) and BrCN. With Mo(CO)6, 3 forms the carbonyl complex (ImNCN)Mo(CO)5 (4). The crystal structure of 3 is reported. The properties of 3 are discussed on comparison with those of (R2N)2C=NCN (1, R = H).
