Reaction Steps

To a solution of 3-amino-4-chloro-benzonitrile (Example 251, 9.0 g, 59 mmol) in 90 mL of DMF was added O-ethylxanthic acid potassium salt (Aldrich, 21.23 g, 133 mmol). The mixture was heated to 115° C. for 4 h. After cooled to room temperature, the mixture was diluted with ice/water and was acidified to pH 2 with 2N HCl. Filtration followed by washing with water gave a crude product, which was recrystalized from EtOH/water to give 5.6 g (49%) of product. 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 14.10 (br s, 1H), 7.90 (d, J=8.3 Hz, 1H), 7.69 (dd, J=8.3, 1.1 Hz, 1H), 7.60 (s, 1H). MS (EI): m/z 191 (M−H).
