Reaction Steps

To a solution of N-[(4-bromophenyl)methyl]-1-phenyl-methanesulfonamide (Example 5, Step 1) (2 g, 5.82 mmol) in N,N-dimethylacetamide (20 mL) was added sodium hydride (60% in mineral oil) (353 mg, 8.8 mmol) and the reaction was stirred at ambient temperature for 30 minutes. 1-Bromo-2-methyl-propane (0.96 mL, 8.81 mmol) was then added and the reaction was stirred for 16 hours. Water was added and the reaction was diluted with EtOAc. The reaction was then washed with water (3×) and brine, dried with MgSO4, concentrated and purified by silica gel column chromatography (0-50% EtOAc in heptane) to give N-[(4-bromophenyl)methyl]-N-isobutyl-1-phenyl-methanesulfonamide (1.20 g, 52% yield). LCMS (m/z) ES+ 418.1 [M+Na]+.
