Sodium Hydroxide → tert-Butyl 3-thioureidopropylcarbamate

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of tert-butyl (3-(3-benzoylthioureido)propyl)carbamate (0.83 g, 2.45 mmol) in MeOH (15 mL) was added sodium hydroxide aqueous solution (1.96 mL, 2.45 mmol). After stirring at rt for 2 h, the reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo and azeotropped with toluene. The crude residue was purified via silica gel chromatography (MeOH-DCM, 9% with 1% NH4OH), affording the title compound (0.83 g, 43%). LCMS: Rt=0.47 min, m/z=234.2 (M+1) Method 2m_acidic.
