The brown solution was concentrated in vacuo. 1-Chlorobutane was added to the resulting brown oil and the mixture concentrated in vacuo. Repeating this procedure gave an oil which on trituration with 1-chlorobutane gave a brown solid. Purification of the crude reaction product by chromatography, using hexane/ethyl acetate (3:2) as eluent gave 1.4 g of 1,3-dihydrobenzo[c]thiophene-4-sulfonamide as a pale yellow solid, m.p. 146°-148°.
