Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A suspension of 10-[(2RS)-1-(1-pyrrolidinyl)-2-propyl]-2-phenothiazinecarbothioamide (2 g and pentylamine (3 cc) in absolute ethanol (30 cc) is saturated with hydrogen sulphide and then heated for 2 hours to a temperature in the region of 100° C. After being cooled, the mixture is concentrated to dryness under reduced pressure (30 mm Hg; 4 kPa) at 40° C. The pasty residue is taken up with ethyl ether (50 cc) and distilled water (15 cc). The organic phase is separated, dried over potassium carbonate and concentrated to dryness under reduced pressure (30 mm Hg; 4 kPa) at 40° C. The residual viscous yellow oil is purified by chromatography on a column (height: 35 cm; diameter: 2.6 cm) of silica gel (0.2-0.063 mm), eluting with ethyl acetate (300 cc) and collecting 25-cc fractions Fractions 3 to 9 are combined and concentrated to dryness under reduced pressure (30 mm Hg; 4 kPa) at 40° C. N-Pentyl-10-[(2RS)-1-(1-pyrrolidinyl)-2-propyl]-2-phenothiazinecarbothioamide (2.25 g) is thereby obtained in the form of a yellow oil.
