The reaction mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature and was stirred overnight. When TLC analysis showed complete conversion, the mixture was filtered to remove the Et3N.HCl and extracted with EtOAc. The combined organic phases were washed with brine, dried (Na2SO4), filtered and concentrated. The residue was purified by flash column chromatography to afford N,N-bis(2′-chloroethyl)-4-methylbenzenesulfonamide (6.22 g, 80% yield).
