Iodoethane → HCID 178477458, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

7.9 g (0.03 M) of N-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)-N'-acetylthiourea, 3.0 g (0.022 M) of ground potassium carbonate, 3.0 ml (0.04 M) of ethyliodide and 100 ml of acetone are mixed and then boiled for 5 hours. The acetone then is distilled off. The residue is washed with water and filtered. 6.8 g (80.5 % of the theoretical yield) of N-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)-N'-acetyl-S-ethylisothiourea with a melting point of 97°-100° are obtained. After recrystallization from ethyl alcohol the product has a melting point of 99°-102° C. The yield is 56 % of the theoretical one.
