Participants

Reaction Steps

To 50 ml of toluene were added 1.5 g (12 mmol) of 4-methyl-1,2,3-thiadiazole-5-carbaldehyde, 1.5 g (13 mmol) of ethyl cyanoacetate, 0.40 g (6.0 mmol) of pyrrolidine and 0.20 g (1.2 mmol) of tosylic acid. In a reactor equipped with a Dean-Stark dehydrating apparatus, the mixture obtained above was stirred for 2 hours with heating under reflux. After the reaction was completed, a saturated aqueous solution of sodium chloride was added to the reaction mixture, the objective product was extracted with ethyl acetate, the organic layer was washed successively with dilute hydrochloric acid, saturated aqueous solution of sodium hydrogen carbonate and saturated aqueous solution of sodium chloride, the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure, and the residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography using 3:1 mixture of n-hexane and ethyl acetate. Thus, 0.73 g of the objective compound was obtained.
