2-Methyl-propane-2-sulfonic acid 4-bromo-3-fluoro-benzylideneamide → HCID 86688557, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Under inert gas atmosphere 37.2 mL (112 mmol) of a 3N solution of methyl magnesium bromide in THF are added dropwise to 17.1 g (55.8 mmol) 2-methyl-propane-2-sulfonic acid 4-bromo-3-fluoro-benzylideneamide (IX.1) in 170 mL THF at −78° C. The cooling bath is removed and stirring is continued for 2 h. After that time, the mixture is poured into sat. NH4Cl-solution (300 mL) and extracted with EtOAc. The organic layer is separated, washed with brine and dried over sodium sulphate. The solvent is removed by evaporation to yield the desired product.
