Sodium hydride → HCID 67395969, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 3-(chlorosulfonyl)benzoyl chloride (1.5 g) in tetrahydrofuran (12 mL) were added benzyl alcohol (712 mg) and pyridine (370 mg) at room temperature, and the mixture was stirred for 1 hr. The reaction mixture was diluted with water, and extracted with ethyl acetate. The separated aqueous layer was extracted again with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layer was washed with saturated brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluent: hexane-ethyl acetate=19:16:1) to give benzyl 3-(chlorosulfonyl)benzoate as a colorless oil (yield 1.70 g, 87%). To a suspension of sodium hydride (60% in oil, 120 mg) in tetrahydrofuran (8 mL) were added dropwise a solution (12 mL) of tert-butyl {[4-fluoro-5-(2-fluoropyridin-3-yl)-1H-pyrrol-3-yl]methyl}methylcarbamate (646 mg) in tetrahydrofuran, 15-crown-5 (660 mg) and benzyl 3-(chlorosulfonyl)benzoate (684 mg) under ice-cooling and the mixture was stirred for 1 hr. The reaction mixture was diluted with water, and extracted with ethyl acetate. The separated aqueous layer was extracted again with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layer was washed with saturated brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluent: hexane-ethyl acetate=4:1→3:2) to give the title compound as a pale-yellow oil (yield 1.09 g, 91%).
