Participants

Reaction Steps

Concentrated hydrochloric acid (18 ml) was added to an acetic acid solution (24 ml) of 1-(2-isocyanatopropan-2-yl)-4-[4-(trifluoromethyl)benzyloxy]benzene (4.35 g, 13.0 mmol) and stirred at room temperature. After 2.5 hours, the mixture was heated to 80° C. and stirred for 1 hour. The solvent was then distilled off. Ice and a 5 N sodium hydroxide aqueous solution were sequentially added to the residue and stirred, followed by extraction with ethyl acetate. The resultant was washed with a saturated sodium chloride aqueous solution and dried over sodium sulfate. After removing the desiccant by filtration, the solvent was distilled off to afford the title compound as a brown solid (3.3 g, 82%).
