Diethyl Ether → Methyl 2-aminobenzo[d]thiazole-7-carboxylate

참여 물질

반응 단계

8.4 g of methyl 3-thioureido-benzoate are suspended in 120 ml of chlorobenzene, 2.2 ml of bromine in 30 ml of chlorobenzene are added at 0° C. in the course of 1 hour, while stirring as thoroughly as possible, and the mixture is then stirred to room temperature. It is then kept at 70° C. for 4 hours and subsequently cooled, a little diethyl ether is added and the precipitate is filtered off, mixed thoroughly with 70 ml of aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution, filtered off again and washed with water. 7.7 g (88%) of crude product of melting point 231-232° C. result. HPLC analysis shows a content of more than 83% of the pure title compound, in addition to 8-18% of isomeric methyl 2-amino-benzothiazole-5-carboxylate. Suspension in and brief heating at 70° C. with ethyl acetate, cooling to 30° C. and filtration give the pure title compound of melting point >250° C. If the reaction is carried out in acetic acid (instead of in chlorobenzene), the content of the undesired isomeric methyl 2-amino-benzothiazole-5-carboxylate is only about 5%.
