Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

At 0° C. a solution of bromine (13.4 mmol) in acetic acid (9.4 mL) is added dropwise to a vigorously stirred solution of 3-thioureido-benzoic acid methyl ester (12.5 ml) in acetic acid (37 mL). The mixture is allowed to reach rt, stirred at 70° C. for 4 h and cooled to rt. Ether is added and the precipitate is filtered off. The residue is stirred vigorously in a sat aq. NaHCO3 solution, filtered off and washed with water. The obtained solid is dried in vacuo to give the desired product which is used without further purification. LC-MS: tR=0.62 min; [M+H]+=209.0.
