Participants

Reaction Steps

Methyl 2-(4-formylphenoxy)-6-methoxybenzoate (0.071 g, 0.24 mmol) and 5-[4-(hydroxymethyl)phenyl]isothiazol-3(2H)-one 1,1-dioxide (0.050 g, 0.21 mmol) were dissolved in 4 M hydrogen chloride in 1,4-dioxane (2.1 m). The reaction was stirred at ambient temperature for 1.25 h. Triethylsilane (0.13 mL, 0.84 mmol) was added and stirred for 18 h. The reaction was quenched with acetone and evaporated. The product was purified on a 50 mm Luna C18 column using a 20–100% acetonitrile in water gradient with 0.05% trifluoroacetic acid at 30 mL per minute over a 30 minute period. The product was lyophilized to give a white powder (6 mg, 6%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ 7.79 (d, J=8.4 Hz, 2H), 7.53 (d, J=8.1 Hz, 2H), 7.32 (m, 2H), 6.71 (s, 1H), 6.69 (d, J=8.5 Hz, 1H), 6.49 (d, J=8.3 Hz, 1H), 4.62 (m, 2H), 4.55 (m, 2H), 3.87 (s, 3H), 3.85 (s, 3H); LCMS found for C26H23NNaO8S (M+Na)+: m/z=532.0.
