Reaktionsschritte

To a solution of ethyl[(2-mercapto-4,5-dihydronaphtho[1,2-d]thiazol-6-yl)oxy]acetate (1.10 g, 3.42 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (20 mL) were added diphenylmethane bromide (0.93 g, 3.76 mmol) and potassium carbonate (0.52 g, 3.76 mmol), and the mixture was stirred at 60° C. for 3 hours. This reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate and water and, after phase separation, the aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate. The pooled organic solution was washed with water, dried over MgSO4, and filtered. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure and the residue was dissolved in acetic acid (20 mL). To this solution was added concentrated sulfuric acid (10 ml), and the mixture was refluxed for 1 hour. After cooling, the reaction mixture was diluted with water and extracted with 2 portions of ethyl acetate. The pooled extract was washed with water, dried over MgSO4, and filtered. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure and the residue was crystallized from hexane-ethyl acetate to provide 0.58 g of the title compound. Yield 37%.
