Sodium Acetate → 6,7-Dihydro-4H-pyrano[4,3-d]thiazole

Participants

Reaction Steps

2-Chloro-6,7-dihydro-4H-pyrano[4,3-d]thiazole (1.78 g) was dissolved in methanol (30 ml), and to the solution 10% palladium on carbon (300 mg) and sodium acetate (830 mg) were added. The mixture was stirred for 5 days in a hydrogen stream of 5 atm. After the catalyst was separated by filtration, the filtrate was concentrated, and the residue was subjected to column chromatography on silica gel (hexane:ethyl acetate=2:1) to obtain 6,7-dihydro-4H-pyrano[4,3-d]thiazole (1.14 g) as a colorless oil.
