3-Cyanobenzoyl chloride → HCID 23296369, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

In 1 liter of toluene, 200 g of 3-cyanobenzoic acid were suspended, followed by the addition of 128 ml of thionyl chloride and 1 ml of N,N-dimethylformamide. The resulting mixture was stirred under heating at 80° C. for 5 hours. After cooling of the reaction mixture, the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure. To the residue, n-hexane was added. By distilling off the solvent under reduced pressure, 3-cyanobenzoyl chloride was obtained. The resulting 3-cyanobenzoyl chloride was dissolved in 3 liters of dried 1,2-dichloroethane, followed by the addition of 200 g of 2-amino-4-methoxycarbonyl-1,3-thiazole. The resulting mixture was heated under reflux for 5 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled. Crystals so precipitated were collected by filtration and then washed with water, whereby 289 g of 2-[N-(3-cyanobenzoyl)amino]-4-methoxycarbonyl-1,3-thiazole.hydrochloride were obtained. Yield: 80%.
