Procedure

Slurry 1-benzoyl-3-(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)-thiourea (5.5 g, 21.2 mmol) and potassium carbonate (11.7 g, 84.7 mmol) in methanol (180 mL) and water (40 mL). Stir the mixture at room temperature for 16 h. Concentrate the solution in vacuo to a paste. Triturate with hot water (20 mL, 60° C.), filter off the solids, wash with water (20 mL, 25° C.) and hexane (excess). Collect the solids, slurry in EtOAc and concentrate in vacuo twice to remove residual water. Dry the material in a vacuum oven at 45° C. for 16 h to obtain the desired intermediate as an off-white solid (2.2 g, 66%). MS (ES+) m/z: 159.1 (M+H)+.
