Participants

Reaction Steps

Following the same procedure described for (S)-methyl 2-[4-(carbamothioylamino)phenyl]propanoate and starting from methyl 2-(4-aminophenyl)propanoate (98 mmol), after workup methyl 2-[4-(carbamoylamino)phenyl]propanoate was isolated as white solid (74%). 1H-NMR (CDCl3): δ 8.25 (bs, 1H, CSNH), 7.40 (d, 2H, J=7 Hz), 7.20 (d, 2H, J=7 Hz), 6.20 (bs, 2H, CSNH2), 3.75 (m, 1H), 3.65 (s, 3H), 1.50 (d, 3H, J=7 Hz).
