Sodium methanethiolate → (3,5-Bis-trifluoromethyl-benzyl)-[2-(cyclohexyl-methylsulfanyl-methyl)-5-trifluoromethyl-benzyl]-(2-methyl-2H-tetrazol-5-yl)-amine

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of (3,5-bis-trifluoromethyl-benzyl)-[2-(bromo-cyclohexyl-methyl)-5-trifluoromethyl-benzyl]-(2-methyl-2H-tetrazol-5-yl)-amine (26 mg; 0.039 mmol) in THF (1 mL) was added sodium thiomethoxide (8 mg; 0.114 mmol). Reaction stirred at room temperature for 16 hours. Reaction was diluted with ethyl acetate and washed twice with water. The organic layer was dried sodium sulfate and concentrated to give 23 mg (93% yield) of the title compound as a gum.
