Procedure

Dissolve 5 g (21.5 mmol) of melatonin in 150 ml of dichloromethane. With stirring, add 3.41 g (84 mmol) of sodium hydroxide and 0.35 g (0.9 mmol) of tetrabutylammonium hydrogen sulphate. Cool the mixture in an ice-bath, and add 4.06 ml (31.5 mmol) of benzenesulphonyl chloride dropwise. After stirring overnight at room temperature, filter off the excess sodium hydroxide and the catalyst. Remove the solvent by evaporation in vacuo, and recrystallise the resulting solid.
