Reaktionsschritte

The crude solid N-(2-chloro-6-methylsulfanylmethyl-phenyl)-2,2,2-trifluoro-acetamide from Step 2 was redissolved in methylene chloride (300 ml) and treated at 0° C. with meta-chloroperoxybenzoic acid (39.88 g, 0.177 mole) in portions with stirring. After 90 minutes the entire reaction mixture was poured onto a column of deactivated aluminum oxide (6% water) and the product was washed free of the acid by eluting with 1:1 ethyl acetate:hexane to afford 22.28 g of N-(2-Chloro-6-methanesulfonylmethyl-phenyl)-2,2,2-trifluoro-acetamide, a crystalline product (86%).
