Water → 6H-thiazolo[5,4-e]indazol-2-amine

Participants

Reaction Steps

2.0 g (15 mmol) of 5-aminoindazole and 4.9 g (60.5 mmol) of sodium thiocyanate were suspended in 10 ml of acetic acid, and 2.4 g (15 mmol) of bromine was added dropwise to the suspension under ice-cooling. The reaction mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature, and it was stirred overnight. The reaction mixture was poured into water, and the resulting crystals were collected by filtration to give 3.1 g of 6H-pyrazolo[4′,3′:3,4]benzo[1,2-d]thiazol-2-ylamine.
