Trichloroacetyl chloride → HCID 12812383, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 3.4 g of 2-(m-nitroanilino)-N-(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl) benzamide and 25 ml of dry tetrahydrofuran was added 0.5 g of approximately 55 % sodium hydride, and stirring was continued for one hour at room temperature. To this was added dropwise under cooling 5.5 g of trichloroacetyl chloride and the mixture was allowed to stand for one hour at room temperature, and then refluxed for 5 hours. After the reaction was complete, the solvent was distilled off from the resulting mixture under reduced pressure. To the residue was added water to precipitate a crude product. This product was recrystallized from ethanol to give 3.2 g of 1-(m-nitrophenyl)-3-(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl) quinazoline-2,4(1H, 3H)-dione as pale yellow prisms, melting at 182°-184° C.
