3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran → HCID 69013000, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 5.02 g (18.9 mmol, 1.0 equiv.) of 4-hydrazinyl-N,N-dimethyl-benzenemethanesulfonamide in 20 mL of water and 20 mL of ethanol was added sufficient sodium acetate to raise the pH to four. To the resulting slurry was added 1.90 mL (20.8 mmol, 1.1 equiv.) of 3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran. The reaction was stirred for sixteen hours then diluted with 200 mL of ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with 10% aqueous potassium carbonate, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo to yield an oil. Chromatography on silica gel using 5% methanol in methylene chloride containing 0.5% concentrated aqueous ammonium hydroxide yielded 1.67 g (28%) of pure 4-[2-(5-hydroxypentylidene)hydrazinyl]-N,N-dimethylbenzenemethanesulfonamide as an oil.
