Lawesson's reagent → Methyl 5-(6-chloro-4-(isopropylamino)pyridin-3-yl)-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-carboxylate

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of methyl 2-(2-(6-chloro-4-(isopropylamino)nicotinoyl)hydrazinyl)-2-oxoacetate (11) (1 g, 3.1 mmol) in THF (30 mL), Lawesson's reagent (6.3 mmol, 2 equiv) was added and heated to reflux for 3 h. The reaction mixture was diluted with EtOAc and washed twice with 10% NaHCO3 solution. The organic layer was collected, dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated. The crude material obtained was purified by column chromatography through silica gel and MeOH:DCM as eluent afford methyl 5-(6-chloro-4-(isopropylamino)pyridin-3-yl)-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-carboxylate.
