Reaction Steps

3-Cyanobenzaldehyde (132 mg, 1.01 mmol), tetrahydrothiophene-3-oxo-1,1-dioxide (272 mg, 2.03 mmol) and 2.0 M NH3 in ethanol (0.75 mL, 1.5 mmol) were heated to 80° C. in ethanol (4 mL) in a sealed tube for 3 days, cooled, treated with 1.0 M HCl in ether (1 mL), heated to reflux for 1 hour, cooled and solvent evaporated. The crude was flash chromatographed over silica gel (15% methanol/chloroform), and the product triturated with ethyl acetate to provide 87 mg of the title compound as an off-white solid.
