Abstract
Guanidine has been synthesized by heating under ammonia pressure an intimate mixture of finely powdered urea, ammonium chloride, and aluminum sulphate. Good yields of guanidine as the hydrochloride salt have been obtained over a wide range of conditions. The mechanism of this synthesis is briefly discussed.Keywords
