Pyridine → 6-Chloro-pyridine-3-sulfonic acid (4-fluoro-phenyl)-isobutyl-amide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of (4-fluoro-phenyl)-isobutyl-amine (250 mg, 1.5 mmol) in DCM (5 mL) was added pyridine (242 μL, 3.0 mmol) followed by 6-chloropyridine-3-sulfonyl chloride (379 mg, 1.8 mmol) and the reaction was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. Water and saturated aqueous NaHCO3 were added and then extracted with DCM, filtered through a phase separator, concentrated then purified by silica gel column chromatography (0-20% EtOAc in cyclohexane) to give 6-chloro-pyridine-3-sulfonic acid (4-fluoro-phenyl)-isobutyl-amide (411 mg, 67%). LCMS (m/z, Method A) ES+ 343 [M+1]+.
