Reaction Steps

To a solution of 1.8 g (5.7 mmol) of N2-mesityl-7-nitro-1,3-benzothiazol-2-amine in 7.2 mL of glacial acetic acid and 25 mL of ethanol was added 1.8 g (32 mmol) of iron powder. The resulting solution was heated at reflux for 18 h before being cooled to room temperature. The slurry was filtered and the filtrate was concentrated to a brown solid. The solid was slurried in water, collected by filtration and purified by flash chromatography eluting with a 33% hexanes/ethyl acetate mixture to give 0.9 g (55%) of the title compound as a tan powder.
