Hexane → 1-Benzoyl-3-(5-methoxy-2-morpholin-4-yl-pyridin-4-yl)-thiourea

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of 27.5 g (132 mmol) 5-methoxy-2-morpholin-4-yl-pyridin-4-ylamine in 400 ml acetone was added dropwise 19.5 ml (145 mmol) benzoyl isothiocyanate at room temperature. The reaction mixture then heated at reflux for 90 min before being cooled to room temperature and poured onto 400 ml hexane and stirred for 5 min. The resulting crystals were collected by filtration, washed with hexane and dried to afford 32.5 g (66%) 1-benzoyl-3-(5-methoxy-2-morpholin-4-yl-pyridin-4-yl)-thiourea as a brown crystalline solid. ES-MS m/e (%): 373 (M+H+, 100).
