Participants

Reaction Steps

21.2 g (0.10 mol) of benzoin were dissolved in DMF (dimethylformamide) with 10.8 g (0.15 mol) of thiourea with warming and the mixture was heated under reflux for 15 hours. After cooling, the DMF was stripped off and the residue was treated with ethanol. The precipitate resulting in the course of this was filtered off with suction, washed with cold ethanol, dried and reused without further purification. The yield was 18.4 g.
