Triethylamine → N-cyclopropyl-2-nitrobenzenesulfonamide

Participants

Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a solution of cyclopropylamine (1.0 g, 18 mmol) and triethylamine (3.7 mL, 27 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (20 mL) was added 2-nitrobenzenesulfonyl chloride (3.9 g, 18 mmol) at 0° C., and the mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 1 hour. The solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure, and the residue was diluted with ethyl acetate. The reaction solution was washed with water and saturated brine and dried over magnesium sulfate. The solid was filtered off, and the filtrate was concentrated. The residue was purified with silica gel column chromatography (hexane:ethyl acetate=1:1) and concentrated. The residue was washed with hexane and collected by filtration to obtain the title compound (3.7 g, 87%).
