Ethanol → HCID 178457379, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 10.3 g of 1-(2-diisopropylaminoethyl)isatin, 5.1 g of semicarbazide hydrochloride and 3.7 g of sodium acetate in 150 ml of a mixture of ethanol and water (2:1) was stirred for 17 hours at room temperature. The yellow precipitates were collected by filtration and washed with aqueous ethanol. The filtrate and the washed the aqueous ethanol solution were combined and concentrated under reduced pressure. An aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution was added to the residue. The yellow precipitates were collected by filtration and washed with dichloromethane. The yellow precipitates were combined and recrystallized from aqueous methanol to obtain 9.3 g of (E)-1-(2-diisopropylaminoethyl)isatin 3-semicarbazone having a melting point of 193°-196° C.
