Description
It is the major degradation product of CCU (1-(2-chlorobenzoyl)-3-(4-chlorophenyl) urea), a new insect growth regulator. It undergoes room temperature Pd-mediated hydrodehalogenations with KF and polymethylhydrosiloxane (PMHS) to yield benzamide.It undergoes reduction with NaBH4 in diglyme at 162°C to yield 2-chlorobenzonitrile
