Participants

Reaction Steps

To N-benzoyl-N'-(4-(1-(2-fluoro-4-biphenylyl) ethyl)thiazol-2-yl)thiourea (0.25 g, 0.561 mmol) in mixture of acetone (10 ml) and methanol (2.5 ml) was added potassium carbonate (0.05 g) in water (1 ml). After the mixture was refluxed for 5 h, the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The extracts were washed with water, dried over, and evaporated under reduced pressure to residue, which was chromatographed and recrystallized with mixture of chloroform and n-hexane to afford N-(4-(1-(2-fluoro-4-biphenylyl)ethyl)thiazol-2-yl)thiourea (0.172 g, 82% yield) as crystalline material: 192.0°-194.0° C.
