Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

8 g 5-fluoro-2,4-diaminotoluene from Step 2 are dissolved in 250 ml pyridine, mixed with 7.9 ml benzenesulfonyl chloride, and stirred for 1 hour at 120° C. After cooling, the reaction preparation is poured over ice. The obtained precipitate is washed with water, dried in vacuum over phosphorus pentoxide, and recrystallized from methanol. 3.9 g (41% of theory) 5-fluoro-2,4-bis[(N-benzenesulfonyl)amino]toluene are obtained which melts at 146° C.
