Reaktionsschritte

A solution of methanesulfonyl chloride (15.2 g, 132 mmol) in methylene chloride (50 mL) was added dropwise to a stirring slurry of pyridine (41.8 g, 529 mmol) and methyl 4-aminobenzoate (20.0 g, 132 mmol) in methylene chloride (110 mL) cooled by a dry ice/acetone bath. The reaction mixture was allowed to warm to ambient temperature and was stirred overnight. The reaction mixture was added to 400 mL of 4% aqueous HCl solution and the solid that formed was collected by filtration. The orange solid was recrystallized from methanol to give 28.8 g (91.5%) of an orange-pink solid, mp 147°-150° C.
