1-Bromo-2-methylpropane → HCID 89484222, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-fluoro-N-[2-methyl-5-(methyloxy)phenyl]benzenesulfonamide (185.8 mg, 0.629 mmol) in Acetonitrile (5 mL) was added neat Barton's base (2-(tert-butyl)-1,1,3,3-tetramethylguanidine) (0.131 mL, 0.629 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. 1-bromo-2-methylpropane (0.137 mL, 1.258 mmol) was then added. The reaction vessel was sealed and heated in Biotage Initiator microwave using initial high absorbance power setting to 150° C. for 25 min. The solvent was dried under a stream of nitrogen in the Radleys blowdown apparatus. The sample was loaded in dichloromethane and purified on automated normal chromatograph on silica (Si) 50 g using a 0-50% ethyl acetate-cyclohexane over 40 mins. The appropriate fractions were combined and dried under a stream of nitrogen in the Radleys blowdown apparatus to give the required product 171 mg as a white solid.
