Reaction Steps

2-Phenyl-2-(2-pyridyl)thioacetamide (1.14 g.) is suspended in 20 ml. of methanol. To the suspension is added 0.49 ml. of morpholine and 0.45 ml. of formalin. The mixture is heated on a steam bath until all of the materials are dissolved. The solution is then cooled and hexane is added. Concentrating to dryness and recrystallizing the residue from isopropanol gives N-morpholinomethyl-2-phenyl-2-(2-pyridyl)thioacetamide, m.p. 128°-130°C.
