2-Naphthalenesulfonyl chloride → HCID 18425754, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

3.5 g (12 mmol) N-(4-piperidin-4-yl-butyl)-3-(pyridin-3-yl)-propionamide and 6.7 ml (48.1 mmol) TEA are placed in 100 ml absolute dichloromethane and cooled to ca 0° C. under moisture exclusion. 3.0 g (13.2 mmol) naphthalin-2-sulfonic acid chloride are dissolved in 40 ml absolute dichloromethane and added dropwise. The mixture is stirred without further cooling at RT overnight. Subsequently, the batch is washed twice, each with 80 ml water. The organic phase is dried over sodium sulfate and the solvent is removed under vacuum. The residue is chromatographically purified over silica gel with CHCl3/CH3OH (97/3) and crystallized from acetic acid ethyl ester after drawing off the solvent. Colorless crystals with an MP of 103-105° C.; yield 2.87 g (50%).
