Preparation, structure, handling
CSI is prepared by treating cyanogen chloride with sulfur trioxide, the product being distilled directly from the reaction mixture.[2]
- SO3 + ClCN → ClSO2NCO
In this transformation, both the carbon and the nitrogen termini of CN are functionalized.
The structure of CSI is represented as ClS(O)2-N=C=O. It consists of two electron-withdrawing components, the chlorosulfonyl group (SO2Cl) and the isocyanate group (-N=C=O). Because of its resulting electrophilicity, the use of CSI in chemical synthesis requires relatively inert solvents such as chlorocarbons, acetonitrile, and ethers.[3]
Uses
The molecule has two electrophilic sites, the carbon and the S(VI) center.[4]
CSI has been employed for the preparation of β-lactams, some of which are medicinally important. Thus, alkenes undergo a [2+2]-cycloaddition to give the sulfonamide. The SO2Cl group can be removed simply by hydrolysis, leaving the secondary amide.[5]
Other reactions of CSI:
- Cycloaddition to alkynes to give 1,2,3-oxathiazine-2,2-dioxide-6-chlorides.
- Conversion of primary alcohols to carbamates.[6]
- Conversion of carboxylic acids and the acid chlorides into nitriles.
- Preparation of N,N-disubstituted sulfamides, R2NSO2NH2
- Preparation of Burgess reagent
Safety considerations
CSI is toxic, corrosive and reacts violently with water. It cannot be stored in glass-stoppered flasks, requiring instead polyethylene bottles.
