Reaction Steps

The starting material, 5,5-diphenyl-2-imidazolin-2-ylhydrazine hydrobromide, is prepared as follows: 4,4-diphenylimidazolin-2-thione, prepared by the method of Marshall, J. Am. Chem. Soc. 78 3696 (1956), is treated with ethyl bromide in refluxing ethanol to yield 5,5-diphenyl-2-ethylthio-2-imidazoline hydrobromide, which upon treatment with hydrazine in refluxing ethanol gives the desired intermediate, melting point 227°-⟦8°⟧228° C.
