Ethyl 3-Dihydro-4h Lab Report

Satisfactory Essays

The ethyl (3-oxo-2,3-dihydro-4H-1,4-benzothiazin-4-yl)acetate 4C (0.05 mol, 14.37g) was warmed in a mixture of ethanol and DMF (1:2) to get a clear solution and was cooled to room temperature. A solution of KOH (0.08 mol, 4.81g) in water (10 ml) was added to this solution and the mixture was stirred for 24h at room temperature to ensure the completion of the reaction. The completion of the reaction was monitored by TLC (CHCl3:MeOH, 9:1). The reaction mixture was evaporated to dryness and the residue dissolved again by adding ice cold water. The insoluble impurities were separated by filtration and the filtrate was acidified with 4N HCl to get a solid product (3-oxo-2,3-dihydro-4H-1,4-benzothiazin-4-yl)acetic acid (4D), collected by filtration.
