Reaction Steps

To a solution of N-[(1E)-(5-fluoropyridin-2-yl)methylene]-2-methylpropane-2-sulfinamide (52.12 g, 228 mmol) in dichloromethane (1000 mL) at −78° C. was added methylmagnesium bromide (3.0 M in THF; 198 mL, 594 mmol). The mixture was allowed to warm to ambient temperature. After 30 min, the mixture was cooled down to −78° C. and was quenched with saturated aqueous ammonium chloride (100 mL). The mixture was allowed to warm to ambient temperature. The organic layer was separated and the aqueous layer was extracted with dichloromethane (3×). The combined organic extracts were washed with brine, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated. Purification by silica gel chromatography (100% ethyl acetate) gave the title compound (34.3 g). MS 245 (M+1).
