4'-Mercaptoacetanilide → HCID 13705241, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Sodium (0.269 g) was added to ethanol (20 ml) and the resultant solution was allowed to cool to ambient temperature and 4-acetamidothiophenol (1.94 g) was added. The mixture was stirred for 5 minutes and 5-chloro-2-nitroaniline (2 g) was added. The mixture was then heated under reflux under argon for 3 hours and allowed to cool. The resultant solid was collected by filtration, washed with ethanol then dried to give the title compound (2.46 g) as a solid. NMR: 2.05 (s, 3H), 6.3 (dd, 1H), 6.6 (s, 1H), 7.4 (brs, 2H), 7.5 (d, 2H), 7.7 (d, 2H), 7.9 (d, 1H); MS (ESP+): 304 (M+H)+.
