Sodium Thiosulfate → N-(4-(((tert-butyldiphenylsilyl)oxy)methyl)-2-iodo-5-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl)methanesulfonamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

A suspension of crude N-(4-(((tert-butyldiphenylsilyl)oxy)methyl)-2-iodo-5-(methylthio)phenyl)methanesulfonamide and mCPBA (8.9 g, 51.6 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (100 mL) was stirred for 2 h at rt. Sat. aq. NaHCO3 (50 mL) and Na2S2O3 (50 mL) were added and the layers separated. The aqueous layer was extracted with CH2Cl2 (2×100 mL). The combined organic layers were dried over anhydrous Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by flash chromatography over silica gel eluting with EtOAc/hexanes (3/7) to provide N-(4-(((tert-butyldiphenylsilyl)oxy)methyl)-2-iodo-5-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl)methanesulfonamide (8.8 g, 80% yield for two steps). For N-(4-(((tert-butyldiphenylsilyl)oxy)methyl)-2-iodo-5-(methylthio)phenyl)methanesulfonamide: LC-MS m/z 612 [M+H]+. For N-(4-(((tert-butyldiphenylsilyl)oxy)methyl)-2-iodo-5-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl)methanesulfonamide: LC-MS m/z 644 [M+H]+. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ 8.25 (s, 1H), 8.08 (s, 1H), 7.67-7.65 (m, 4H), 7.46-7.37 (m, 6H), 6.77 (s, 1H), 5.05 (s, 2H), 3.11 (s, 3H), 2.83 (s, 3H), 1.12 (s, 9H).
