Reaction Steps

Into 100 ml. of a 10% aqueous hydrochloric acid solution 10.8 g. (0.033 moles) of 2-[(methoxycarbonyl)amino]-1H-benzimidazole-5-sulfonic acid chloride hydrochloride and 10 g. of Fe powder are added at room temperature. The mixture is stirred at 70° to 80° C. for 5 hours, whereupon the precipitated 2-[(methoxycarbonyl)amino]-1H-benzimidazole-5-thiol is filtered off and converted into 2-[(methoxycarbonyl)amino]-5-propylthio-1H-benzimidazole as described in Example 10. The product melts at 208° to 210° C.
