Dimethylformamide → HCID 13173177, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 1.5 ml of dimethylformamide in 10 ml of chloroform was added 1.1 g of phosphorus oxychloride under ice-cooling and the mixture was allowed to stand for one hour. To the reaction mixture was added 1.5 g of 6-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)-2,3-dihydroimidazo[2,1-b]thiazole and the mixture was refluxed for 4 hours. To the reaction mixture was added 20 ml of an aqueous 10% potassium carbonate solution and the mixture was stirred for 15 minutes. The chloroform layer was dried and concentrated. The crystals thus obtained were recrystallized from ethanol to provide 1.0 g of 6-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)-5-formyl-2,3-dihydroimidazo[2,1-b]thiazole.
