Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 1-(2-amino-4-methyl-thiazol-5-yl)-2-bromo-ethanone (7.0 g, prepared as described in WO 2006/125805), 2,2-dimethylpropanethioamide (2.25 g, prepared as described by Boys and Downs in Synthetic Communications 2006, 36, 295-298.), triethylamine (7.2 ml) and ethanol (173 ml) are heated at reflux for 3.5 hours. On cooling to room temperature the reaction mixture is filtered, the filtrate evaporated and then partitioned between aqueous NaHCO3 and CH2Cl2, extracting 3×CH2Cl2. The organic layers are dried and evaporated then triturated 4× with diethyl ether (50 ml), the diethyl ether layers combined and extracted with 1M HCl (100 ml). The HCl layer is then washed 3× diethyl ether, basified with aqueous NaOH and extracted 4× diethyl ether and 2×CH2Cl2. The organic layers dried over Na2SO4 and evaporated to give the title compound as a red solid. Hplc/MS (Method B) RT 1.95 minutes, M+H 253.9.
