3-Fluorobenzothiohydrazide → Tert-butyl 3-(5-(3-fluorophenyl)-2-phenyl-2,3-dihydro-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)butylcarbamate

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 3-fluorobenzothiohydrazide (300 mg, 1.76 mmol) in ethanol/DCM (6 mL/2 mL) was added tert-butyl 3-methyl-4-oxo-4-phenylbutylcarbamate (538 mg, 1.94 mmol). After stirring at room temperature for 16 hours, acetic acid (3 drops) was added and the mixture stirred for another 48 hours. The reaction mixture was then concentrated under reduced pressure and chromatographed (9:1 hexanes/ethyl acetate) to provide the product (366 mg, 48%) as a mixture of diastereomers as a yellow foam.
