Ammonia → 7-amino-2-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-6-nitro-5H-[1,3,4]thiadiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-one

Participants

Reaction Steps

1.9 g of 2-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-7-chloro-6-nitro-5H-[1,3,4]thiadiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-one was suspended in a mixture of 20 ml of ethanol and 10 ml of dimethylformamide, and 5 ml of concentrated aqueous ammonia was added dropwise to the suspension while maintaining at a temperature of 60° C. to 70° C. After heating at that temperature for 2 hours, the mixture was cooled and the precipitate formed was separated by filtration to obtain 1.3 g of 7-amino-2-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-6-nitro-5H-[1,3,4]thiadiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-one as pale yellow prisms having a melting point higher than 300° C.
