Participants

Reaction Steps

This compound was prepared according to the general method of Example 77 using 2,2'-dithiobisbenzoyl chloride (2.00 g, 5.83 mmol) in 50 mL of dichloromethane and 3-nitroaniline (1.60 g, 11.6 mmol) in 13 mL of pyridine. The crude product was recrystallized once from ethanol-ether, then twice from acetonitrile-DMF-water to yield 0.79 g of the title compound, mp >270° C.
