Procedure

A mixture of 1-bromo-3-(4-chlorophenyl)propan-2-one (25.4 grams, 103 mmol) and thiourea (8.59 g, 113 mmol) in ethanol (1.51 L) was heated at 85° C. for 2 hours. The reaction was cooled and concentrated in vacuo and the residue was taken up in ethyl acetate (300 mL) and saturated sodium bicarbonate (100 mL). The layers were separated and the aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate (100 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with brine (50 mL), dried over MgSO4, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was recrystallized from ethyl acetate/hexanes to give 19.9 grams of the title compound as a tan powder (86% yield). LC/MS (FA) ES+ 225. 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ: 7.29-7.24 (m, 2H), 7.20-7.15 (m, 2H), 6.04 (m, 1H), 5.00 (bs, m, 2H), 3.83 (s, 2H).
