Phenyl isocyanate → 1-(2-Benzoyl-4-chlorophenyl)-3-phenylurea

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 13.1 g (0.11 mole) of phenyl isocyanate and 23.17 g (0.1 mole) of 2-amino-5-chlorobenzophenone in 70 ml of methylene chloride was refluxed for 20 hr, and then evaporated to dryness under reduced pressure. The residue was recrystallized from ethanol to give 31.71 g (90%) of 1-(2-benzoyl-4-chlorophenyl)-3-phenylurea as colorless crystals: mp 145°-147°; 1H nmr (DMSO-d6) δ6.7-8.3 ppm (m, 13H), 9.43 ppm (d, J=7 Hz, 1H, exD2O) and 10.25 ppm (s, 1H, exD2O); 13C nmr (DMSO-d6) δ152.2 ppm (NHCO) and 195.5 ppm (C=O).
