Hydrazine → 1,3-Benzothiazole-2-carbohydrazide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of ethyl benzo[d]thiazole-2-carboxylate (10 g, 48.25 mmol) in ethanol (200 mL) was added hydrazine (15.5 g, 482.5 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at RT for 30 min and concentrated under high vacuum to remove hydrazine. The resulting residue was triturated with ethanol (40 mL) to give benzo[d]thiazole-2-carbohydrazide (9.3 g, quant.) LRMS (M+H+) m/z 194.0.
