Procedure

To a stirred solution of 2-chlorothiazole-4-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (20.49 g, 0.107 mol) in THF (180 mL) at RT, a 1M solution of LiOH (aq) (160 mL, 0.160 mol) was added. The resulting solution was heated to 65° C. for 1 h. The solvent was evaporated in vacuo. The residue was treated with brine (100 mL) and acidified to pH 1 with 1M HCl (aq). The precipitate was filtered off, washed with H2O (2×50 mL) and Et2O (2×50 mL) and dried in a vacuum oven at 60° C. for 62 h to yield the title compound as a pale yellow solid. MS m/z: 164.1 (M+H). Calc'd. for C4H2ClNO2S-163.58.
