5-Bromothiophene-2-sulfonyl chloride → 5-BroMo-thiophene-2-sulfonic acid M ethylaMide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 5-bromothiophene-2-sulfonyl chloride (602 mg) in tetrahydrofuran (5 mL) was added dropwise a solution of 2.0M methylamine-tetrahydrofuran (3.5 mL) on an ice bath. After stirring for 15 minutes on an ice bath, the solution was diluted with water and extracted with ethyl acetate. After washing with an aqueous solution of saturated sodium bicarbonate and saturated sodium chloride water, the solution was dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate. After filtration through silica gel, the solvent was removed by evaporation to provide the title compound (608 mg) as a colorless oily matter.
