The reaction of molecular bromine (Br2) with arylthioureas is known to produce 2-aminobenzothiazoles (Hugerschoff reaction). We show here that benzyltrimethylammonium tribromide (1, PhCH2NMe3Br3), a stable, crystalline organic ammonium tribromide (OATB), can be readily utilized as an alternative electrophilic bromine source. It is easier to control the stoichiometry of addition with an OATB, which
已知分子溴(Br2)与芳基硫脲反应生成2-氨基苯并噻唑(Hugerschoff反应)。我们在这里显示了三溴苄基三甲基铵(1,PhCH2NMe3Br3),一种稳定的结晶有机三溴化铵(OATB),可以很容易地用作替代的亲电子溴源。用OATB更容易控制添加的化学计量,从而最大程度地减少了由过量试剂引起的芳香族溴化反应。我们已经开发了一种直接程序,该程序可以使用四丁基硫氰酸铵(Bu4NSCN)和PhCH2NMe3Br3从异硫氰酸酯和胺中制备官能化的2-氨基苯并噻唑。
