Cyanoguanidine is an inexpensive commodity chemical and it is found to be a useful reagent for the direct Friedel-Crafts carboxamidation of arenes. The reaction works best in an excess of Brønsted superacid, an observation suggesting the involvement of a superelectrophilic intermediate. Theoretical calculations indicate that the most stable diprotonated species involves protonation at the guanidine and cyano nitrogen atoms.
氰基胍是一种廉价的商品化学品,它被发现是芳烃直接傅克羧酰胺化反应的有用试剂。该反应在过量的布朗斯特超强酸中效果最佳,这一观察结果表明涉及超亲电中间体。理论计算表明,最稳定的双质子化物种涉及胍基和氰基氮原子的质子化。
