Reaktionsschritte

A mixture of 2-amino-5-methoxybenzenethiol (5.0 g, 32.2 mmol) and 4-nitrobenzoyl chloride (6.0 g, 32.2 mmol) in toluene (250 ml) was heated under reflux with a catalytic amount of 4-toluenesulphonic acid in a Dean-Stark trap for 6 h. On cooling to room temperature the precipitate was collected by filtration, washed with toluene and recrystallised from AcOH to give the title compound (7.0 g, 76%) as a pale yellow solid.
