Participants

Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

Dissolve 3,4-difluorobenzamide (4.95 g, 31.5 mmol) in diethyl ether (70 mL) and cool the mixture to 0° C. Add phosphorus pentasulfide (7.0 g, 31.5 mmol) and warm the mixture to room temperature overnight. Filter the mixture and concentrate the filtrate to obtain 5.5 g (100%) of a yellow solid. 1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ: 9.99 (bs, 1H), 9.54 (bs, 1H), 7.89 (m, 1H), 7.75 (m, 1H), 7.46 (m, 1H).
