Yield: 83%
Reaction Conditions:
Stage #1:4-Methylthiazole with butyl magnesium bromide;diisopropylamine in tetrahydrofuran at 20;
Stage #2: with iodine in tetrahydrofuran for 1 h;
Stage #3: with water;sodium thiosulfate in tetrahydrofuran
Steps:
2.a
a) 2-Iodo-4-methyl-thiazole; To a solution of 21.7 mmol diisopropylamine in 50 ml tetrahydrofuran was added dropwise 19.7 mmol butylmagnesium chloride solution (2 M in tetrahydrofuran) and the mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. 10.1 mmol 4-methylthiazole was then added and stirring continued for 1 hour at room temperature. Finally, a solution of 25.7 mol iodine in 50 ml tetrahydrofuran was added dropwise and stirring continued for a further 1 h. The reaction mixture was then quenched by addition of 20% aqueous sodium thiosulphate solution and the mixture was extracted three times with ethyl acetate. The combined organic phases were dried over sodium sulphate and concentrated in vacuo. Chromatography (SiO2, ether/heptane) afforded the title compound as a brown solid (yield 83%). MS (m/e): 226.1 (M+H 100%).
