Phosphorus pentachloride → HCID 22558186, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A 100 mg portion of 2-mercaptonaphtho[2,3-d]oxazole dissolved in 30 ml of anhydrous benzene was mixed with 130 mg of phosphorus pentachloride, and the mixture was refluxed under heating for 2 hours. To this was further added 90 mg of phosphorus pentachloride, followed by additional 2.5 hours of heating under reflux. Under cooling with ice, 995 mg of N-methylpiperazine was added to the resulting solution, and the reaction was carried out for 1 hour at the same temperature and then for 48 hours at room temperature. Precipitated materials in the reaction solution were removed by filtration, and the resulting filtrate was concentrated under a reduced pressure. The thus obtained residue was dissolved in 300 ml of ethyl acetate, washed three times with water, dehydrated with sodium sulfate and then concentrated under a reduced pressure. The resulting residue was purified by a silica gel column chromatography (chloroform:methanol=50:1) to obtain 18 mg of the title compound.
