4-Chlorobenzenesulfonyl chloride → cis-2-(4-Chlorobenzenesulfonylamino)-cyclohexanecarboxylic acid amide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of cis-2-aminocyclohexanecarboxylic acid amide (2.0 g, 14.0 mmol), and triethylamine (3.9 mL, 28 mmol) in dichloromethane (100 mL) was added 4-chlorobenzenesulfonyl chloride (2.95 g, 14.0 mmol). The resulting solution was stirred at room temperature for 18 h. The reaction was then diluted with dichloromethane (200 mL) and washed with H2O, 1.0 M HCl, brine, and dried over Na2SO4. Further purification by flash chromatography (silica gel, 1% to 10% MeOH/CHCl3) afforded cis-2-(4-chlorobenzenesulfonylamino)-cyclohexanecarboxylic acid amide (2.0 g) as a white solid in 45% yield over three steps: 1H NMR (DMSO-d6) δ 7.82 (m, 2 H), 7.63 (m, 2 H), 7.56 (d, 1 H, J=7.0 Hz), 7.22 (s br, 1 H), 6.80 (s br, 1 H), 3.43 (m, 1 H), 2.37 (m,1 H), 1.72 (m, 2 H), 1.45 (m, 3 H), 1.15 (m, 3 H); MS m/e 317.05 (M+H)+.
