THIAMBUTOSINE





Brand Names : DPT: Su-1906; Ciba-1906.

This thiourea derivative is a phenolic ether and also a tertiary aromatic amine. For its synthesis, the phenolic ether intermediate, 4-butoxyaniline is prepared from 4-aminophenoi.

The other intermediate, 4-dimethylaminophenyl isothiocyanate, is synthesized by catalytic reduction of methyl orange, converting the resulting substituted diamine into an ammonium N-aryl dithiocarbamate by means of carbon disulphide and ammonium hydroxide and then heating with lead nitrate to obtain the required isothiocyanate. Reaction of the two intermediates yields thiambutosine.
