Hydrazine → HCID 59693403, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A 3-neck flask, equipped with a reflux condensor and mechanical stirrer, is charged with EtOH (98 mL) and dimethylthiocarbamic acid S-[2-(1,3-dioxo-1,3-dihydroisoindol-2-yl)indan-5-yl] ester (6.9 g; 20.6 mmol). Hydrazine (5.8 mL; 186 mmol) is added in 1-portion at RT and the reaction was refluxed with mechanical stirring for 30 min. The reaction is cooled to RT and the gelatinous, white solid is filtered and washed with ether several times. The ether washes are combined, evaporated under reduced pressure and the crude residue was further triturated with ether, filtered and the ether evaporated under reduced pressure to afford 4.6 g (95%) of dimethylthiocarbamic acid S-[2-aminoindan-5-yl) ester as a brown oil.
