Reaktionsschritte

5 G. of 1-amino-2-nitro-4-thiocyanatobenzene in 20 ml. of dimethylformamide is treated under nitrogen with 0.97 g. of sodium borohydride in 10 ml. of dimethylformamide at 20°-30° C. After 1 hour at 20°-25° C, 6 g. of 2,2,3,3-tetrafluoro-1-iodopropane is added and the mixture is heated at 100° C for 4 hours. The mixture is cooled, diluted with water and extracted with chloroform. Evaporation of the dried chloroform solution yields 2-nitro-4-(2,2,3,3-tetrafluoropropylthio)aniline as an oil. Acetylation of the latter compound in acetic anhydride with sulfuric acid catalysis according to the first paragraph of Example XXI yields 1-acetamido-2-nitro-4-(2,2,3,3-tetrafluoropropylthio)benzene which can be isolated by extraction into chloroform. Alternatively, this may be prepared by substituting 1-acetamido-2-nitro-4-thiocyanatobenzene in the above alkylation reaction.
