Sulfanilylthiourea (I) was prepared for investigation of its chemotherapeutic properties (1) by reaction of acetylsulfanilylcyanamide (II) with H2S or (NH4)2S (III) followed by deacetylation, and (2) from III and sulfanilylcyanamide (IV). A review of previous preparations of I is given. To a solution of Ca cyanamide (V) (220 g.) in H2O (1300 mL.), stirred 3 h. at room temperature, was added p-AcNHC6H4SO2Cl (VI) (200 g.) in portions for over 50 min. at 25-30°. After stirring 2 h. longer, the solution was brought to a boil, filtered, and CaCl2.2H2O (220 g.) dissolved in the filtrate. On cooling and standing 79% (176 g.) of Ca acetylsulfanilylcyanamide (VII) was obtained. Deacetylation of VII gave 90% of IV, m. 292-5° (decomposition). VII heated to 100° with 6 N HCl, cooled, and neutralized with NH4OH gave sulfanilylurea (VIII) as a gum which on purification gave VIII hydrate (IX), m. 121-4°; VIII, obtained by heating IX at 100°, m. 143-7°. VII (13 g.) heated 15 h. at 95-100° with 20% III solution (33 mL.) gave 70.5% crude acetylsulfanilylthiourea (X) which after purification m. 197.5-8° (decomposition). At 160° III and VII gave acetylsulfanilamide. X (0.1 mol) added to NaOH (0.1 mol) in H2O (200 mL.), warmed until solution was complete, decolorized, and treated with NaCl (30 g.), gave Na acetylsulfanilylthiourea (XI), m. 234.5-5°. XI (0.1 mol), 1,2-dichloroethyl acetate (0.1 mol), NaOAc.3H2O (0.12 mol), and H2O (100 mL.) heated to 90° for 1 h. and cooled gave 79% of acetylsulfathiazole (XII), m. 258-60°. Deacetylation of XII with NaOH gave 74.5% of sulfathiazole, m. 198-200°. IV (0.101 mol) and 20% III solution (50 mL.) heated 1 h. at 160°, cooled, and adjusted to pH 3.5 gave 89.5% of I, m. 171.5-2° (decomposition). Deacetylation of X to I was effected with 10% NaOH or 7% HCl. VII reacted with aniline gave 1-(N4-acetylsulfanilyl)-3-phenylguanidine, m. 221-4° (from HOAc), which on deacetylation gave 1-sulfanilyl-3-phenylguanidine; m. 206-7° (from 75% EtOH). VII with p-nitroaniline gave 1-(N4-acetylsulfanilyl)-3-(4-nitrophenyl)guanidine (XIII), m. 254-5°, which on deacetylation gave 1-sulfanilyl-3-(4-nitrophenyl)guanidine, m. 235-6°. XIII reduced with Fe powder and dilute HOAc and deacetylated gave 1-sulfanilyl-3-(4-aminophenyl)guanidine, m. 200-1°. Anthranilic acid and VII gave 1-(N4-acetylsulfanilyl)-3-(2-carboxyphenyl)guanidine (XIV), m. 286-8°, which on deacetylation gave 1-sulfanilyl-3-(2-carboxyphenyl)guanidine, m. 265-6°. XIV Na salt m. above 300°. VII, reacted with NH4Cl at 154° for 4 h., gave acetylsulfaguanidine (XV), m. 260-2°. XV and sulfaguanidine (XVI) (from the deacetylation of XV) form a crystalline product, probably a mol. complex, m. 98-150°. XVI, m. 187°, was also prepared from IV and concentrated NH4OH at 165°. To thiourea (0.125 mol) in Me2CO (200 mL.) was added VI (0.124 mol) after which the mixture was stirred under reflux for 1 h. Filtration gave solid dithiodiformamidine-2HCl, m. 173-5°, while from the filtrate p-acetamidophenyl p-acetamidobenzenethiosulfonate (AcNHC6H4SO2SC6H4NHAc) (XVII), m. 225-7° (decomposition), crystallized Deacetylation of XVII with 20% EtOH-HCl gave p-aminophenyl p-aminobenzenethiosulfonate-HCl, m. 176-9° (decomposition). 2-Methyl-2-thiopseudourea coupled with VI gave 76% of 3-(N4-acetylsulfanilyl)-2-methyl-2-thiopseudourea (XVIII), m. 234-5°. XVIII heated with dilute HCl, was deacetylated to 3-sulfanilyl-2-methyl-2-thiopseudourea, m. 182-4°. 2-Benzyl-2-thiopseudourea-HCl, reacted with VI gave 96.5% of 3-(N4-acetylsulfanilyl)-2-benzyl-2-thiopseudourea, m. 168-9°, which was deacetylated with EtOH-HCl to 3-sulfanilyl-2-benzyl-2-thiopseudourea, m. 144.5-5.5°. Thiourea (0.25 mol) refluxed 30 min. in ethanol (150 mL.) with ethylene bromide (0.25 mol) gave 72.3% of 1,2-bis(2-thiopseudourea hydrobromide) ethane (XIX), m. 238-40°, instead of the expected 2-(2-bromoethyl)-2-thiopseudourea hydrobromide. XIX reacted with VI gave 3-(N4-acetylsulfanilyl)-2-(2-hydroxyethyl)-2-thiopseudourea, m. 236-8°, which was deacetylated with EtOH-HCl to 3-sulfanilyl-2-(2-hydroxyethyl)-2-thiopseudourea, m. 171-3°. Acyl pseudothioureas coupled with VI gave only XVII.
