Diethyl Ether → 1-t-Butyl-1-(3-toluoyl)-4-(4-chlorobenzenesulfonyl)semicarbazide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of N'-t-butyl-N'-3-toluoyl hydrazine (4.03 g, 0.02 mol) in methylene chloride (25 ml) under nitrogen was added 4-chlorobenzenesulfonyl isocyanate (5 g, 80%, 0.02 mol) at room temperature. The exothermic reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 30 minutes. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure to give an oil. A precipitate appeared after treating with ether. The pure product was collected by suction-filtration and washed with a small amount of ether affording 4.8 g of 1-t-butyl-1-(3-toluoyl)-4-(4-chlorobenzenesulfonyl)semicarbazide as a white solid: m.p. 184°-188° C.
