Benzotriazole-1-carboxamidinium Tosylate: An Alternative Method for the Conversion of Amines to Guanidines

Abstract
A novel, effective and convenient reagent for the conversion of amines to guanidines is presented. Various primary and secondary amines react with benzotriazole-1-carboxamidinium tosylate (1) to give the corresponding guanidines in good yields under mild conditions.
