Potassium Carbonate → 4-Benzo[1,3]dioxol-5-yl-5-(6-methyl-pyridin-2-yl)-thiazol-2-ylamine

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 2-(2-benzo[1,3]dioxol-5-yl-1-bromo-2-oxo-ethyl)-6-methyl-pyridinium bromide (30 mg, 0.072 mmol), thiourea (7.5 mg, 0.094 mmol, 1.3 equiv), and potassium carbonate (0.11 mmol, 1.5 equiv) in ethanol (1 mL) was heated to 80° C. overnight. The resulting reaction mixture was cooled to ambient temperature and concentrated in vacuo. Reverse phase high pressure liquid chromatography (a gradient from 5-30% acetonitrile in 0.1% aqueous formic acid) provided 4-Benzo[1,3]dioxol-5-yl-5-(6-methyl-pyridin-2-yl)-thiazol-2-ylamine (15.6 mg, 70%).[MS: M+H=312.0].
