Methyl 2-(tert-butoxycarbonylamino)-1,3-thiazole-5-carboxylate
Abstract
The title compound, C10H14N2O4S, was synthesized by the reaction of methyl 2-aminothiazole-5-carboxylate and di-tert-butyl carbonate. In this structure, the thiazole ring is planar (mean deviation = 0.0011 Å). Two weak intramolecular C—H...O hydrogen bonds are formed between two of the methyl groups and one carbonyl O atom, resulting in the formation of two twisted six-membered rings. Intermolecular N—H...N hydrogen bonds link the molecules to form centrosymmetric dimeric units, and the hydrogen-bond scheme is completed by intermolecular C—H...O contacts.
