Chloroform → 2-(Furan-3-yl)imidazo[1,2-b][1,2,4]thiadiazole

Participants

Reaction Steps

To 0.2 g. of 2-(3-furylthiocarbonylamino)-imidazole [(IV), R = 3-furyl] in 10 ml. of chloroform, at 20°-25°C, there is added dropwise 0.1 ml. of sulfuryl chloride in 2 ml. of chloroform. After 10 minutes the reaction mixture is concentrated at 10°-20°C. under vacuum to give a residue which is treated with methanol and filtered. The residue obtained following filtration is treated with dilute aqueous ammonia to give a precipitate which is filtered and dried to yield 2-(3-furyl)-1,2,4-thiadiazolo-[2,3-a]-imidazole.
