N-Chloropiperidine

N-Chloropiperidine is the organic compound with the formula C5H10NCl. A colorless liquid, it is a rare example of an organic chloramine, i.e. a compound with an N-Cl bond. It is prepared by treatment of piperidine with calcium hypochlorite. Typical of chloramines, the compound is so reactive that it is generated and used as a solution in ether. The compound undergoes dehydrohalogenation to afford the cyclic imine.[1]
