Participants

Reaction Steps

Following the procedure of Example 1, a stirred solution containing 3.2 g. of dimethylaminothioacetamide hydrochloride, and 6.48 g of bromomethyl 4-phthalimidobutyl ketone [prepared by the procedure of Chem. Listy., 49, 1385 (1955); C.A., 50, 5573c (1956)]; in 50 ml. of ethanol was heated at refluxing temperature for about 5 hours and was then cooled.
