References and Notes
General Procedure for the Synthesis of Thioamides: To a solution of the ketoxime (2 mmol) and Et3N (0.62 mL, 4.4 mmol) in anhyd MeCN (5 mL) under a nitrogen atmosphere was added TsCl (2.2 mmol) in an ice bath. After stirring at r.t. for 30 min, thiourea (4 mmol) was added and the resulting mixture was then refluxed for 2 h. After the reaction was finished (monitored by TLC), it was quenched by brine. The organic layer was extracted with CH2Cl2, and dried over anhyd Na2SO4. After evaporation of the organic layer under reduced pressure, the resulting crude product was purified by column chromatography on silica gel to give the corresponding thioamides in moderate to high yields. All products gave satisfactory analytical data and are consistent with published data.8 The data for selected compound 2a: mp 75-76 ˚C (lit.8 75-76 ˚C). ¹H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ = 9.51 (br s, 1 H), 8.71 (br s, 1.2 H), 7.67 (d, J = 7.7 Hz, 2.4 H), 7.48-7.33 (m, 5.5 H), 7.29 (d, J = 7.4 Hz, 1 H), 7.18 (d, J = 7.6 Hz, 2 H), 2.75 (s, 3.6 H), 2.52 (s, 3 H). ¹³C NMR (100 MHz, CDCl3): δ = 204.0, 200.7, 138.6, 137.9, 129.7, 128.9, 128.1, 127.1, 125.1, 124.3, 35.4, 30.3.
