Synthesis and properties of sym-triazine derivatives. 3. alkoxylation of 2-alkyl-4,6-bis(trichloromethyl)-sym-triazines containing higher alkyl radicals

Nucleophilic substitution reactions of trichloromethyl groups in 2-alkyl-4,6-bis-(trichloromethyl)-sym-triazines by alkoxy radicals were studied. It was shown that in the presence of sodium alcoholates, two CCl₃ groups are replaced, and the corresponding 2,4-dialkoxy-6-alkyl-sym-triazines are formed. The products of partial replacement, 2-alkoxy-4-trichloromethyl-6-alkyl-sym-triazines, were synthesized by heating the initial sym-triazines with alcohols in the presence of tertiary amines.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 12, pp. 1674–1677, December, 1984.
