Hydrochloric Acid → 4-{[(2-{[5-(4-t-Butylphenyl)-4-hydroxy-3-thienyl]methylene}hydrazino)carbonothioyl]amino}benzoic acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

2-(4-t-Butylphenyl)-3-hydroxy-4-formylthiophene (50 mg, 0.19 mmol) synthesized in Reference Synthetic Example 25 and 4-hydrazinocarbonothioylaminobenzoic acid (40 mg, 0.19 mmol) were stirred with dimethylformamide (1.9 mL) and concentrated hydrochloric acid (0.1 mL) at room temperature for 12 hours. The reaction solution was partitioned between ethyl acetate and water, and the organic layer was washed with saturated aqueous sodium chloride and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The resulting organic layer was concentrated and purified by silica gel column chromatography (chloroform). Methanol/chloroform was added to the resulting crude product, and the precipitated yellow solid was recovered by filtration to give the desired product as a pale yellow solid (20 mg, yield 23%).
