The resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 50 minutes. After adding water (50 mL), the reaction mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate (50 mL). The organic layer was washed with an aqueous 1 N hydrochloric acid solution (50 mL) and saturated brine (50 mL) and then dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate (5 g). The solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure to yield N-(3-acetyl-4-chlorophenyl)methanesulfonamide (595 mg) as a colorless crystal.
