Sulfathiazole → HCID 86618115, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Prepared using general procedure 44. A mixture of sulfathiazole (5 gm, 19.5 mmol) and maleic anhydride (1.92 g, 19.5 mmol) was heated under refluxed for 16 hrs. The reaction was cooled to RT and then to 0° C. for 4 hrs. The formed precipitate was filtered off and washed with cold water. The crude solid was dissolved in CH2Cl2 and absorbed onto Celite. Purification via silica gel chromatography using 10% MeOH in CH2Cl2 gave (1H-pyrrole-2,5-dione)-N-(thiazol-2-yl)benzene sulfonamide (2 g, 30%). LC/MS (10%-99% CH3CN (0.035% TFA)/H2O (0.05% TFA)), m/z: M+1 obs=336.2; tR=2.12 min.
