Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 5-[(3,5-bis(1,1-dimethylethyl)-4-hydroxyphenyl]methylene]-2-(methylthio)-4(5H)-thiazolone (6.13 g, 0.0169 mole) and thiosemicarbazide (1.53 g, 0.0169 mole) in ethanol (300 mL) is refluxed with stirring for 7 hours. After standing overnight at room temperature, the product is separated by filtration, washed with ethanol to give 5.78 g of a solid. It is recrystallized from DMF-methanol to give 3.4 g (47%) of pure 2-[5-[[3,5-Bis(1,1-dimethylethyl)-4-hydroxyphenyl]methylene]-4-oxo-2-thiazolidinylidene]hydrazinecarbothiamide, (Z)-, mp 200°-202° C.
