Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 2-acetamido-5-chlorothiazole (14.3 g), 2-mercaptopyrimidine (10 g) and potassium carbonate anhydrous (22.4 g) in N,N-dimethylformamide (280 ml) was stirred at 150° C. an hour. The reaction mixture was poured into water with stirring under ice cooling. The mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate, washed with water and dried over magnesium sulfate. The organic layer was concentrated under reduced pressure to give solid. The solid was triturated with water, and the precipitates were collected by filtration, washed with water and dried in vacuo to give 2-acetamido-5-(2-pyrimidinylthio)thiazole (12.30 g, yield: 60.2%). mp: 225° C. (dec.) IR (Nujol): 3170, 1645, 1555, 1310 cm-1
