Lawesson's reagent → N-(2-cyanoethyl)-2,2-bis(fluoromethyl)-6-nitro-2H-1-benzopyran-4-carbothioamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 0.11 g of N-(2-cyanoethyl)-2,2-bis(fluoromethyl)-6-nitro-2H-1-benzopyran-4-carboxamide and 0.17 g of a Lawesson's reagent and 10 ml of benzene was refluxed with heating for 2 hours. The solvent was distilled and the obtained residue was purified according to silica gel column chromatography (developing solution, MeOH:CH2Cl2 =1:99) and further recrystallyzed by a mixed solvent of ethyl acetate and hexane to obtain 42 mg of N-(2-cyanoethyl)-2,2-bis(fluoromethyl)-6-nitro-2H-1-benzopyran-4-carbothioamide with a melting point of 114°-116° C.
