Acetylthiourea → N-(4-{2-[4-(sulfanylmethyl)phenyl]ethyl}-1,3-thiazol-2-yl)acetamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a suspension of N-(4-{2-[4-(chloromethyl)phenyl]ethyl}-1,3-thiazol-2-yl)acetamide (589.7 mg, 2.000 mmol) in ethanol (10 ml) was added 1-acetyl-2-thiourea (472.6 mg, 4.000 mmol), and the mixture was heated under reflux for 19 hr. After cooling to room temperature, the mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (FUJI SILYSIA CHEMICAL LTD. BW-300SP 30 g, ethyl acetate:hexane=2:3) to give N-(4-{2-[4-(sulfanylmethyl)phenyl]ethyl}-1,3-thiazol-2-yl)acetamide (507.7 mg, 1.736 mmol, yield 86.8%) as a white solid.
