Participants

Reaction Steps

1 g (4 mmol) of 2-bromo-5-chloroindan-1-one is stirred with 450 mg (4.5 mmol) of 2-cyanothioacetamide and 0.55 ml (4 mmol) of triethylamine in 10 ml of dry ethanol at room temperature for 4 h. The reaction mixture is concentrated in vacuo, and the residue is purified by chromatography on silica gel with ethyl acetate/n-heptane 1/1. (6-Chloro-8H-indeno[1,2-d]thiazol-2-yl)acetonitrile is obtained with a melting point of 134° C.
