Sodium Bicarbonate → HCID 85787172, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 4-bromo-2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-3,5-heptanedione(α-bromo-dipivaloylmethane; 1.42 g, 5.40 mmol), thiourea (451.8 mg, 5.94 mmol) and ethanol (15 mL) was refluxed for 2 hours. After cooling, the reaction mixture was poured into saturated aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate and extracted with ethyl acetate. After the organic layer was washed with water and brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, the residue obtained by evaporation under reduced pressure was crystallized (dichloromethane/hexane) to give the title compound (1.23 g, 94.5%) as a white crystal.
