[NH2:1][C:2]1[S:3][C:4]([Br:7])=[CH:5][N:6]=1.[C:8](Cl)(Cl)=[O:9]>C(OCC)(=O)C>[Br:7][C:4]1[S:3][C:2]([N:1]=[C:8]=[O:9])=[N:6][CH:5]=12-Amino-5-bromothiazole (19.0 grams) and a saturated solution of phosgene in ethyl acetate (200 ml) were charged into a glass reaction vessel equipped with a mechanical stirrer, thermometer and reflux condenser. The reaction mixture was heated at reflux with stirring for a period of about 3 hours. After this time the reaction mixture was cooled and filtered to recover the desired product 5-bromothiazol-2-yl isocyanate dimer as a fine yellow powder.
