Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A mixture of (4-Cyano-3-pentylsulfanyl-isothiazol-5-yl)-carbamic acid ethyl ester (2.7 g, 9.0 mmol) and concentrated sulfuric acid (5 mL) was heated to 100° C. for 6 hours. After cooling to ambient temperature, the mixture was diluted with ice water, extracted three times with ethyl acetate, and the combined organic layers were dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated in vacuo, affording 2.2 g (100%) of 5-amino-3-pentylsulfanyl-isothiazole-4-carboxylic acid amide as a yellow oil. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 3.26 (t, 2 H, J=7.2 Hz), 1.71 (m, 2H), 1.43-1.19 (m, 4H), 0.88 (t, 3H, J=6.8 Hz) ppm.
