Reaction Steps

A mixture of intermediate (19b) (0.1665 mol) and 2-aminobenzenethiol (0.2 mol) in THF (500 ml) was stirred and refluxed overnight. The mixture was cooled, poured out into water, extracted with CH2Cl2 and decanted. The organic layer was dried, filtered and the solvent was evaporated. The residue was purified by column chromatography over silica gel (eluent: CH2Cl2/CH3OH/NH4OH 97.5/2.5/0.1. The pure fractions were collected and the solvent was evaporated. The residue was crystallized from 2-butanone/diethyl ether. The precipitate was filtered off and dried, yielding 31.2 g (49.6%) of (±)-N-[4-[2-ethyl-1-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)butyl]phenyl]-2-benzothiazol-amine (comp. 25).
