Acetic Acid → HCID 15017642, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 2-phenylamino-4-(2-aminoethyl)thiazole (0.30 g, 1.37 mmol) in methanol (15 ml) was treated with acetic acid (0.02 ml, 0.35 mmol) and formaldehyde (0.11 ml of a 37% aqueous solution, 1.37 mmol). After 20 minutes, the reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo and the residue dissolved in ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate, water, and saturated aqueous sodium chloride, dried over sodium sulfate, and concentrated in vacuo to provide a glassy solid (0.31 g, 1.34 mmol, 98% yield) which was used without further purification.
