A facile synthesis of 2,4,6-trichloroborazine from boron trichloride-dimethylsulfide complex and ammonium chloride

2,4,6-Trichloroborazine has been recognized as a desirable monomer for the preparation of high-performance boron nitride fibers through polymer derived ceramics route.So a high yield and facile synthesis of 2,4,6-trichloroborazine is essential in practice. Using boron trichloride-dimethylsulfide complex((CH_3)_2S·BCl_3) and ammonium chloride(NH_4Cl) as starting materials and toluene(C_6H_5CH_3) as solvent,the synthesis of 2,4,6-trichloroborazine to give high yield is reported.
