Benzamide → HCID 58119345, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

The mixture of the 2-bromo-1-[4-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl]ethanone (2 g, 7.2 mmol) and benzamide (0.87 g, 7.2 mmol) was heated to 140˜180° C. for 4 hours. When TLC showed that the reaction had completed, the mixture was cooled, and partitioned between EtOAc and water. The aqueous layer was extracted with EtOAc twice, and the combined organic layers were washed with water and brine, dried over MgSO4. After concentration, the residue was purified by column (eluted by PE:EA=10:1) to afford 0.6 g (yield 30%) of 4-[4-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl]-2-phenyl-1,3-oxazole.
