Sodium Thiosulfate → 2-[2-Chloro-4-fluoro-5-(3-methyl-2,6-dioxo-4-trifluoromethyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyrimidin-1-yl)phenoxy]-2-(methylsulfonyl)acetamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a mixture of 2-[2-chloro-4-fluoro-5-(3-methyl-2,6-dioxo-4-trifluoromethyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyrimidin-1-yl)phenoxy]-2-(methylthio)acetamide and 50 ml of chloroform, 3.7 g of m-chloroperbenzoic acid were added and stirred at room temperature for 3 days. To the reaction mixture, aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution and aqueous sodium thiosulfate solution were added. The reaction mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with saturated brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and concentrated. The residue was subjected to silica gel column chromatography (eluent: ethyl acetate) to give 3.3 g of 2-[2-chloro-4-fluoro-5-(3-methyl-2,6-dioxo-4-trifluoromethyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyrimidin-1-yl)phenoxy]-2-(methylsulfonyl)acetamide.
