Reaction Steps

A mixture of 2-bromomethyl-5-fluoro-N,N-dimethyl-benzenesulfonamide (880 mg, 2.97 mmol) and sodium azide (200 mg, 3 mmol) in dimethylformamide (4 mL) was stirred at 55-60° C. for 30 min after which the solvent was removed in vacuo. The residue was partitioned between CH2Cl2 and water, and the organic fraction was washed with water, dried (Na2SO4), filtered and concentrated to provide 670 mg (Yield 87%) of the title compound as a yellow oil; 1H NMR (500 MHz, CDCl3) δ ppm: 2.84 (6H, s) 4.78 (2H, s) 7.29-7.34 (1H, m) 7.59-7.64 (2H, m).
