Identification of organic-N-Chloramine
« on: May 14, 2012, 04:14:48 PM »
Hi!

I have an interresting problem!

I'm working in the field of organic synthesis using radical-cation and I'm making presumably a N-chloramine (it's a hypothesis). I can't get an NMR of the crude reaction mixture due to the presence of paramagnetic radical-cation.

When I purify the compound by column, I got the protonated ammonium (which is in good agreement with an hydrolysis of the chloramine!)

Is there any reactions that I could perform to prove that I've got the chloramine?

Thanks!

Kevin

That's not possible... The reaction is quite sluggish and I can't make more than 20mg at a time...

I would imagine that would have a fairly distinctive IR band. No?
