Reaction Steps

To 2-fluoro-5-nitrobenzonitrile (5.00 g, 30.1 mmol) in DMF (100 mL), triethylamine (9.30 mL, 66.7 mmol) was added and followed by ethanethiol (2.80 mL, 37.9 mmol). After stirring at rt for 1 h, the reaction mixture was poured into water (500 mL). The resulting precipitate was filtered and dried on high vacuum overnight to provide 5A (6.08 g, 97%).
