2,6-Dimethoxybenzoyl chloride → 2,6-Dimethoxybenzamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 300 mg of 2,6-dimethoxybenzoyl chloride in 20 ml of toluene containing 300 mg of 2-amino-5-[(2-acetoxy-1-acetoxymethyl)-1-methylethyl]-1,3,4-thiadiazole was heated at reflux for eighteen hours. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and diluted with pentane. A solid precipitate which formed was collected by filtration and air dried to give N-[5-(2-acetoxy-1-acetoxymethyl)-1-methylethyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl]-2,6-dimethoxybenzamide in 3% yield.
