Dimethylformamide → Diisopropyl Ether

Participants

Reaction Steps

Potassium phthalimide (1.65 g) was added to a solution of 4-(2-chloromethylpyridin-4-yl)-2-(diaminomethyleneamino)thiazole (2.39 g) in N,N-dimethylformamide (25 ml). After stirring for 14 hours, the solvent was evaporated in vacuo and the residue was mixed with water. The resulting precipitate was collected by filtration and washed with ethanol and then diisopropyl ether to give 2-(diaminomethyleneamino)-4-(2-phthalimidomethylpyridin-4-yl)thiazole (2.68 g).
