Reaction Steps

Thiophosgene (0.38 ml, 1.1 eq) is added dropwise to a solution cooled down to 0° C., of N-(4-aminophenyl)-N′-methoxyurea hydrochloride (1 g) and triethylamine (3.2 ml, 5 eq) in tetrahydofuran (90 ml). The mixture is stirred for 15 minutes at 0° C. then water and diethyl ether are added. After decantation and extractions, the organic phases are combined, washed with salt water, dried over Na2SO4 then concentrated under reduced pressure at 40° C. Purification by flash chromatography on silica gel (eluent: heptane/ethyl acetate 7:3 to 3:7) produces the expected compound (630 mg; 62% yield).
