Reaction Steps

To a solution of 5-(4-Chloro-phenyl)-3,3,4-trimethyl-2,3-dihydro-isothiazole 1,1-dioxide, 1.5 g (5.5 mmol) in 150 mL of carbon tetrachloride was added 1.5 g (8.25 mmol) of N-bromosuccinimide and 0.13 g of 2,2′-azobis(2-methyl-propionitrile). The mixture was heated to reflux for 4 h then cooled to ambient temperature. Chloroform was added and the solution was washed with water, washed with brine, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated to dryness. To a solution of the residue in 75 mL of absolute ethanol was added 3.6 mL (55.0 mmol) of ethylamine (70% solution in water). The reaction mixture was stirred 24 h at ambient temperature then concentrated to dryness. The residue was purified by chromatography on silica gel with methanol/chloroform as eluant to yield 0.21 g (12%) of the desired product, shown below, as a tan oil. 1H-NMR is consistent with structure; MS (ion spray) 313.0 (M−1); Anal. Calc'd for C14H19ClN2O2S.0.1CHCl3: C, 51.83; H, 5.89; N, 8.57. Found: C, 51.58; H, 6.38; N, 8.04.
