Reaction Steps

2-(2-Imino-6-trifluoromethoxy-3-benzothiazolinyl)ethanol may be prepared according to the following process: 2-amino-6-trifluoromethoxybenzothiazole (9.4 g) and 2-bromoethanol (10 g) in absolute ethanol (30 cc) are heated for 95 hours to boiling. The mixture is then cooled to a temperature in the region of 20° C. The precipitate formed is filtered off and washed with ethyl ether (100 cc). 2-(2-Imino-6-trifluoromethoxy-3-benzothiazolinyl)ethanol hydrobromide (6.4 g), m.p. 219° C., is obtained.
