Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 450 mg (1.75 mmol) of isopropyl 5-ethyl-4-(aminothioxomethyl)-5-ethylthiophene-2-carboxylate was reacted with 348 mg (1.75 mmol) of 2-bromoacetophenone (Aldrich, Milaukee, Wis., USA) in a manner similar to Example 8, step (a) to give isopropyl 5-ethyl-4-(4-phenyl(1,3-thiazol-2-yl))thiophene-2-carboxylate (303 mg, 49%) as an off-white solid. 1H-NMR (DMSO-d6; 300 MHz) δ8.22 (s, 1H), 8.07 (s, 1H), 8.03 (m, 2H), 7.49 (m, 2H), 7.38 (m, 1H), 5.13 (septet, 1H, J=6.2 Hz), 3.34 (q, 2H, J=7.4 Hz), 1.39 (t, 3H, J=7.4 Hz), 1.33 (d, 6H, J=6.2 Hz). Mass spectrum (ESI, m/z): Calcd. for C19H19NO2S2 358.1 (M+H), found 358.1.
