The reaction was heated at reflux overnight. After cooling, solvent in the reaction mixture was evaporated under reduced pressure. The resultant residue was dissolved in water and adjusted to pH 2-3 with 2N HCl, resulting in the formation of a red solid. The red solid was filtered giving 2-mercapto-5-nitrobenzoxazole (10.6 g, 76%).
