Reaction Steps

2-cyano-6-hydroxybenzothiazole 32 (336.2 mg, 1.91 mmol) and allyl bromide (331 μl, 3.82 mmol) were dissolved in N,N-dimethylformamide (1.5 ml), potassium carbonate (404.6 mg, 1.53 mmol) was added in an argon atmosphere, and the reaction mixture was stirred for an hour at room temperature. Water (20 ml) was added to the reaction mixture, and after extraction with ethyl acetate (3×50 ml) and drying of the organic layer with anhydrous sodium sulfate, the result was concentrated in vacuo. The resulting residue was purified by preparative thin-layer silica gel column chromatography {one 20 cm×20 cm×1.75 mm plate; hexane-ethyl acetate (1:1)}, yielding 6-allyloxy-benzothiazole-2-carbonitrile 33 (418.1 mg, 90%) as a pale yellow solid.
