Ethane, 2-bromo-1,1-diethoxy- → HCID 118324018, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-(4-nitrophenyl)ethanethioamide (800 mg, 2.608 mmol, 1 equip) and bromoacetaldehyde diethyl acetal (2.055 g, 10.431 mmol, 4 equip) in acetic acid (12.09 mL) and water (0.47 mL) was heated at 100° C. for 45 minutes. The reaction mixture was poured into water and extracted with ethyl acetate (3×). The combined organic extracts were washed with water, saturated sodium bicarbonate, and then dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated. The residue was purified by MPLC using ethyl acetate-heptane as eluent to yield 2-((4-chlorophenyl)(4-nitrophenyl)methyl)thiazole as a viscous brown oil.
