5-(Methylthio)-8-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-3H,6H-1,4,5a,8a-tetraazaacenaphthylen-3-one → 5-[(Phenylmethyl)amino)-8-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-3H,6H-1,4,5a,8a-tetraazaacenaphthylen-3-one

Participants

Reaction Steps

A 200 mg amount of 5-(methylthio)-8-[3-trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-3H,6H-1,4,5a,8a-tetraazaacenaphthylen-3-one (prepared as described in Example 9) was suspended in 10.0 ml of benzylamine. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and filtered. The solid on the filter was washed with ether and air dried to give 189 mg of the product of the example as a white solid, m.p. 220°-224° C.
