Reaction Steps

A suspension of 13.8 g of 2-bromo-3',4'-dihydroxy-5'-nitroacetophenone is treated with 9.0 g of 1-(phenethyl)-2-thiourea in 150 ml of n-butanol and the mixture is heated to boiling under reflux for 3 hours. After cooling to room temperature, the crystals are filtered under suction and crystallized from n-butanol. There is obtained 3-nitro-5-[2-(phenethylamino)-4-thiazolyl]pyrocatechol hydrobromide of m.p. 249°-251°.
