Sodium Iodide → 3-Chloro-4-(thiazol-4-ylmethoxy)-phenylamine hydrochloride

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2-chloro-4-nitrophenol (1.00 g, 5.76 mmol) in acetonitrile (125 mL) were added 4-chloromethylthiazole hydrochloride (1.08 g, 6.34 mmol), Potassium carbonate (2.39 g, 17.29 mmol) and sodium iodide (1.73 g, 11.52 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at 60 C overnight. Water (60 mL) and DCM (10 mL) were added. After all solid material dissolved, layers formed were separated. The organic layer was washed with water and brine, dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated down to give the required material as a light yellow solid (1.29 mg, 83%). 1H-NMR (CD2Cl2) δ 8.87 (d, 1H), 8.32 (d, 1H), 8.16 (dd, 1H), 7.54-7.56 (m, 1H), 7.22 (d, 1H), 5.33-5.34 (m, 2H); LCMS RT=3.01 min; [M+H]+=271.0.
