Reaction Steps

A mixture of 73.9 g (0.24 mol) of 2-bromo-4-(4-clorophenyl)nicotinic acid and 22.0 g (0.29 mol) of thiourea in 100 ml of 5% HCl and 150 ml of acetic acid was stirred at 100° C. for 2 hours. The mixture was poured into water and 400 ml of 50% sodium hydroxide was added to the resultant mixture, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 30 minutes. The mixture was then acidified with 20% HCl, and the crystal thus precipitated was filtrated out and washed with water. The washed crystal was then dried to obtain a crude crystal of 2-mercapto-4-(4-chlorophenyl)nicotinic acid.
