Abstract
An efficient synthesis of unsymmetrical 2-thioparabanic acids is described via a three-component reaction between benzoyl isothiocyanate and primary amines in the presence of oxalyl chloride.
Key word
oxalyl chloride - primary amines - 2-thioparabanic acid - multicomponent reaction

To a stirred solution of benzoyl isothiocyanate (0.32 g, 2 mmol) and benzylamine (0.20 g, 2 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (10 mL) was added oxalyl chloride (0.25 g, 2 mmol) at r.t. The reaction mixture was then stirred for 12 h. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure and the viscous residue was purified by flash column chromatography on SiO2 (Merck 230-400 mesh) using hexane-EtOAc as eluent to give 4a as yellow powder; mp 151-153 °C, yield 0.30 g (70%).
