Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 5-[3,6-dihydro-3-methyl-2,6-dioxo-4-(trifluoromethyl)-1(2H)-pyrimidinyl]-1,2-benzisothiazole-3-carboxaldehyde (2.86 g, 8.05 mmol), 3-mercapto-1-propanol (0.600 ml, 6.84 mmol), bismuth (III) chloride (0.090 g, 0.285 mol) and acetonitrile is stirred overnight at room temperature. Additional 3-mercapto-1-propanol (0.200 ml, 2.31 mmol) and bismuth (III) chloride are added and the resultant mixture is concentrated in vacuo. The residue is chromatographed with ethyl acetate-hexanes to afford a solid, which is taken up in diethyl ether, washed with water, once with brine and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. Concentration in vacuo affords the title compound as a white solid (1.15 g, 33.2%, mp 125-130° C.) which is identified by NMR spectral analysis.
