methyl 5-amino-2-methylsulfanylbenzoate

Conditions: temp:70.01; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: Combine methyl 2-methylthio-5-aminobenzoate (2.18 g, 11.1 mmol) and triethyl orthoformate (7.4 mL, 44.3 mmol) in glacial acetic acid (20 mL). After the formation of a yellow solid, add glacial acetic acid (40 mL). After 50 minutes, add sodium azide (2.9 g, 44.3 mmol). Heat to 70° C. After 2 hours, cool the reaction mixture to ambient temperature and stir. After 56 hours, cool in an ice bath and dilute with water (400 mL) to give a solid. After 1 hour, collect the solid by filtration, rinse with water, and dry to give methyl 2-methylthio-5-(1H-tetrazol-1-yl)benzoate: Rf=0.90 (silica gel, 10% methanol/ethyl acetate). After 2 hours cool the reaction mixture to ambient temperature After 56 hours cool in an ice bath to give a solid After 1 hour collect the solid by filtration rinse with water dry

Conditions: temp:90.01; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: Combine methyl 2-methylthio-5-nitrobenzoate (2.9 g, 12.7 mmol) and glacial acetic acid (100 mL). Heat to 90° C. Add iron powder (5 g) and water (20 mL) over about 10 minutes. After 30 minutes, the reaction mixture was filtered while still hot and diluted with water (500 mL). Extract the reaction mixture with ethyl acetate. Dry the organic layer over MgSO4, filter, and evaporate in vacuo to give a residue. Chromatograph the residue on silica gel eluting with 20% ethyl acetate/hexane to give methyl 2-methylthio-5-aminobenzoate. Rf=0..51 (silica gel, 30% ethyl acetate/hexane). the reaction mixture was filtered while still hot and diluted with water (500 mL) Extract the reaction mixture with ethyl acetate Dry the organic layer over MgSO4 filter evaporate in vacuo to give a residue
