No. 5,776,961) in 300 mL of pyridine was added 21.93 g (0.113 mol) of 4-fluorobenzenesulfonyl chloride. The reaction mixture was stirred for 18 h at 80°, cooled to room temperature and poured into water. The resulting mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate and the combined organics were then washed with 5% HCl solution and water. The organic layer was then dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was chromatographed on silica gel eluting with ethyl acetate/hexanes (1:3) to provide 14.53 g (39%) of the desired product as a tan solid. Electrospray Mass Spec: 388.0 (M−H)−
