Synthesis
General procedure for the synthesis of 5-(2-chloropyridin-4-yl)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-amine (8.1.C) from the compound (CAS:474327-25-8): 42 g of polyphosphoric acid (PPA) was accurately weighed into a flask. After preheating the flask to 100 °C, 2.4 g (10 mmol) of intermediate 8.1.B was added in batches.After 1 h, the reaction mixture was diluted with ice water and the pH was adjusted with ammonia solution to 7. At this point, a bright yellow precipitate precipitated from the reaction solution. The precipitate was collected by filtration and washed. The precipitate was analyzed by LC/MS to confirm that the precipitate was the target product 8.1.C. 2.05 g of 8.1.C was finally obtained in 93% yield.
