Reaction Steps

4-bromothiazole-2-carbohydrazide (620 mg, 2.8 mmol) and toluene (9 mL) were added to a sealable vial, DMF·DMA (920 μL, 6.9 mmol) was added and the reaction was stirred for 5 minutes. Cyclopropyl amine (770 μL, 11 mmol), and AcOH (160 μL, 2.8 mmol) were added and the reaction was heated in a microwave reactor at 150° C. for 30 minutes. The reaction was concentrated and purified by flash chromatography (1→7% MeOH in CH2Cl2) to afford 740 mg of 4-bromo-2-(4-cyclopropyl-4H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)thiazole (contaminated with DMF·DMA, but used directly in next step).
