This mixture is heated on the steam bath for 1.5 hours, then cooled to room temperature. At this temperature is added ethyl 7-bromoheptanoate (13 g., 0.055 mole) and the reaction is heated at 90° C. for twenty hours. The reaction is poured into water (200 ml.), neutralized with hydrochloric acid and extracted with ethyl acetate (2× 100 ml.). The ethyl acetate layer is washed with brine, dried over sodium sulfate, then concentrated in vacuo. The yield of ethyl 7-(methanesulfonamido)heptanoate is 7.1 g. (51%) boiling 165°-168°/0.1 mm.
