Participants

Reaction Steps

4-Bromo-2-trifluoromethyl-benzenethiol (259.2 g, 1.01 mol) was dissolved in methanol (1.3 L) and water (2.6 L), then acrylamide (130 g, 1.82 mol), followed by sodium tetraborate (25.9 g, 129 mmol) were added at room temperature. The suspension was stirred for 40 h. After filtration, the solid was washed with water (2.6 L) and n-heptane (2.6 L) and dried in vacuo to yield the title compound as a white powder (325.6 g, 98%). MS (EI): m/z=330.0, 328.0 [M+H]+. 1H NMR (d6-DMSO, 400 MHz): δ 2.40 (t, J=7.2 Hz, 2H), 3.24 (t, J=7.2 Hz, 2H), 6.92 (bs, 1H), 7.37 (bs, 1H), 7.60 (d, J=8.3 Hz, 1H), 7.82-7.88 (m, 2H).
