p-Toluenesulfonyl isocyanate → HCID 21242068, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 1 g of 1-(diphenylmethyl)-1,2-diazetidin-3-one (prepared according to Example 1A.) in 20 mL of methylene chloride, at ambient temperature and under a nitrogen atmosphere, there is added in one portion a solution of one equivalent of p-toluenesulfonylisocyanate in methylene chloride. The reaction mixture is stirred at ambient temperature for 24-72 hours. The solvent is removed under reduced pressure followed by trituration of the residue with ethyl ether to yield 970 mg (53%) of the title compound having a melting point of 115°-123° C.
