4-Iodobenzamide → HCID 23279242, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 2.1 g of 4-iodobenzamide, 30 ml of tetrahydrofuran, and 2 g of Lawesson's reagent was heated to reflux for 1 hour. It was partitioned between toluene and 10% aqueous sodium carbonate solution. The organic phase was dried and evaporated. The crude product was passed over a plug of silica gel using acetone/hexane 1:1 for elution. Crystallization from methylene chloride/hexane gave 1.75 g of yellow crystals with m.p. 163-165° C.
