2-Chloroaniline → HCID 54390405, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a slurry of 2-methyl-thieno[3,4-d][1,3]oxazin-4-one (1.3 g, 7.78 mmol) and acetic acid (15 mL) was added 2-chloroaniline (1.64 mL, 15.57 mmol). The mixture was refluxed 4 hours, cooled, and concentrated. The residue was partitioned between ethyl acetate and water and the aqueous phase was made basic by careful addition of saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate. The phases were separated and the aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layer was washed with water and brine, dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated to a black oil. The oil was flash chromatographed on silica gel (30×100 mm) eluting with 10% ethyl acetate/hexane. The first component eluting from the column, 0.363 g of white solid was identified as 3-acetamidothiophene-4-carboxylic acid 2-chlorophenylamide.
