Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 20.5 g of 2-(3,3-dimethyl-1-thioxobutyl)hydrazinecarboxylic acid, methyl ester, 12.92 g of methyl acrylate, 1 ml of triethylamine and 300 ml of dry benzene was heated at reflux for 8 hours, then cooled and concentrated in vacuo. The residual oil was chromatographed through a bed of hydrous magnesium silicate, eluting with dichloromethane and evaporated, giving 27 g of (Z)-[1-[(3-methoxy-3-oxopropyl)thio]-3,3-dimethylbutylidene]hydrazinecarboxylic acid, methyl ester.
