Reaction Steps

3-Bromo-4-methoxyphenylsulfonyl chloride (2.80 g, 9.8 mmol) was dissolved in dichloromethane (30 mL) and the solution was treated with triethylamine (1.76 mL, 12.6 mmol), followed by the dropwise addition of t-butylamine (1.33 mL, 12.6 mmol). The mixture was allowed to stand for 2 hours and then was poured onto a mixture of 5% citric acid solution and dichloromethane. The organic layer was separated and the aqueous layer was extracted with dichloromethane (×2). The combined organic layers were dried and concentrated. Crystallization of the crude solid from ethyl acetate/hexane gave 3-bromo-N-tert-butyl-4-methoxybenzenesulfonamide (2.43 g, 77%).
