Procedure

Ethyl 3-bromo-2-oxo-4-phenylbutanoate (5.8 g) was dissolved in EtOH (110 ml), and then thiourea (3.1 g) was added to the solution. The reaction mixture was refluxed for 2 hours under N2 atmosphere. The cooled reaction mixture was evaporated in vacuo. The residual solid was suspended (pH=8) in saturated NaHCO3 and water. The solid was collected by filtration, and purified by flash column chromatography over silica gel with CHCl3/MeOH (10:1) as an eluent to give ethyl 2-amino-5-benzyl-1,3-thiazole-4-carboxylate (808.2 mg) as a yellow wax.
