Trifluoroacetic acid → 3-(4-(Methylsulfonyl)phenyl)-1,2,4-thiadiazol-5-amine

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of tert-butyl 3-(4-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl)-1,2,4-thiadiazol-5-ylcarbamate (1.57 g, 4.42 mmol) in DCM (20 mL) was added anisol (0.50 mL) and TFA (10 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 6 h and concentrated. The solid was suspended in saturated NaHCO3 (˜200 mL) and stirred for 30 min. The solid was collected by filtration, washed with water (˜500 mL) followed by hexanes (˜50 mL), and dried under high vacuum to give 3-(4-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl)-1,2,4-thiadiazol-5-amine.
