Abstract

The synthesis of two selective thiol derivatisation reagents (3, 4b) is described, starting from readily available 2-(4-aminophenyl)-6-methyl-benzothiazole (1). The isocyanate6, being a known alcohol derivatisation reagent, is obtained from1 in a two step synthesis, in which the usual isocyanate synthesis using phosgen is avoided.

Zusammenfassung

Die Synthese zweier selektiver Thiolderivatisierungsreagentien (3, 4 b), ausgehend vom leicht zugänglichen 2-(4-Aminophenyl)-6-methylbenzthiazol (1), wird beschrieben. Das Isocyanat6, ein bekanntes Reagens zur Derivatisierung von Alkoholen, wird ebenfalls aus Verbindung1 in zweistufiger Synthese erhalten, bei welcher die Isocyanatsynthese mit Hilfe von Phosgen umgangen wird.
