Reaction Steps

4-Cyano-2-nitrophenol (0.80 g; 4.9 mmol) and K2CO3 (0.68 g; 4.9 mmol) were refluxed in MeCN (40 mL) for 1 h. The solvent was removed on a rotary evaporator and the residue dissolved in DMF (10 mL). 2-{[(3-Nitrophenyl)sulfonyloxy]methyl}oxirane (1.2 g, 4.9 mmol; see Example B above) was added to the resultant solution. The solution was stirred at 40° C. for 12 h and filtered. The precipitate was washed with H2O to give the sub-title compound in a 65% yield.
