Lithium Hexamethyldisilazide → N-(2,4-dimethoxybenzyl)-5-iodo-N-(thiazol-2-yl)pyridine-2-sulfonamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

(2,4-Dimethoxy-benzyl)-thiazol-2-yl-amine (0.453 g, 1.81 mmol) was dissolved in Tetrahydrofuran (5 mL, 70 mmol) and cooled in an ice bath. 1.0 M of Lithium hexamethyldisilazide in Tetrahydrofuran (2.0 mL) was added dropwise to the reaction. After addition was complete, the reaction mixture was warmed to ambient temperature. After 30 min, the reaction was cooled to at 0° C. and a solution of 5-Iodo-pyridine-2-sulfonyl chloride (0.50 g, 1.6 mmol) in Tetrahydrofuran (4 mL, 50 mmol) was added dropwise. The reaction mixture was stirred 4 h then quenched with saturated aqueous ammonium chloride. The reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo. The residue was taken up in ethyl acetate and additional saturated aqueous ammonium chloride was added. The layers were separated, and the aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered through celite, and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified on the ISCO twice (hexanes to ethyl acetate) to afford the product as a yellow solid.
