Procedure

A mixture of 2-bromo acetophenone (2.1 g, 10.55 mmol) and methyl 4-amino-4-thioxobutanoate (1.6 g, 10.86 mmol) in EtOH (15 mL) was heated to 80° C. for 3 h. Reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The product was extracted with EtOAc and the organic layer was washed with H2O and brine, dried over anhydrous Na2SO4, and concentrated under reduced pressure to afford ethyl 3-(4-phenylthiazol-2-yl)propanoate (1.1 g, yield 40%) as a white solid, which was carried through without further purification. 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ 7.90-7.87 (m, 2H), 7.44-7.39 (m, 2H), 7.35-7.30 (m, 2H), 4.22-4.15 (q, J=7.2 Hz, 2H), 3.41-3.36 (t, J=7.5 Hz, 2H), 2.94-2.89 (t, J=7.3 Hz, 2H), 1.30-1.25 (t, J=7.1 Hz, 3H). MS (ESI) m/z: Calculated for C14H15NO2S: 261.08. found: 262.2 (M+H)+.
