Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To 1.35 g of N-(α-cyclopropylbenzyl)-N-propylthiourea (Compound 75) in 35 ml of ethanol, add 546 mg of triethylamine, then slowly 1.52 g of 2-bromo-1-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-1-propanone (Compound 15). After 3 hours of heating at 75° C., remove the precipitate formed by filtration. The ethanolic solution is evaporated to dryness. Take up the residue in ethyl ether and wash with water until bromide ions have disappeared. Dry the organic phase over anhydrous sodium sulphate and then evaporate to dryness. Purify the residue on a silica column, using a mixture of cyclohexane and ethyl acetate (10:1 V/V) as eluent, to obtain the expected product. Recrystallise in acetonitrile (white crystals).
