Application

Cyanuric chloride can be used as a reagent:   
  • In the preparation of acyl azides from carboxylic acids and sodium azide.       
  • For the conversion of carboxylic acids, N-Boc, N-Cbz, and N-Fmoc amino acids into corresponding alcohols.      
  • For the conversion of alcohols into the corresponding carbonyl compounds by alternative Swern oxidation reaction.


It can also be employed as a catalyst in the Beckmann rearrangement of ketoximes into amides in the presence of ZnCl2.
Reagent for the conversion of alcohols to chlorides and for the immobilization of microorganisms and enzymes.

A series of novel triazinonide-bridged bisimidazolium pincers were easily synthesized by quaternization of functionalized N-phenylimidazoles with highly reactive cyanuric chloride under mild conditions. The pincer was proven to be a very efficient ligand for in situ Pd-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura reaction with

Four dichloro-s-triazine (DCT) and five monochloro-s-triazine (MCT) chiral derivatizing reagents (CDRs) were synthesized by incorporating amino acid amide moieties as chiral auxiliaries in trichloro-s-triazine and its 6-methoxy derivative, respectively. Another MCT reagent was synthesized by substitution of two chlorine atoms
