Study of the Hofmann reaction between sodium hypochlorite and succinamide. Preparation of isopropylidene bis-phenylen oxydiacetic acid. Preparation of polyamides
In the Hofmann reaction between succinamide and potassium hypobromite, small yields of dihydrouracil have been obtained. From the reaction of succinamide and sodium hypochlorite it was hoped that larger yields of the dihydrouracil could be obtained and through spectrophotometry identify the compound further
