Participants

Reaction Steps

To a cold (ice:water temperature) solution of amino-3-[2-(4-cyanophenyl)ethoxy]benzene×HCl (231 mg; 0.84 mmol; from step (iii) above) in pyridine (2 mL) was added benzenesulfonyl chloride (119 μL; 0.93 mmol) and the mixture was allowed to reach room temperature and stirred for three days. The pyridine was removed by evaporation and the residue was partitioned between water and EtOAc. The phases was separated and the water phase was extracted twice with EtOAc and the combined organic phase was washed once with 1M KHSO4, brine and dried (Na2SO4). The solvent was evaporated and the residue was subjected to purification by flash chromatography using a stepwise gradient of toluene:EtOAc (100:0, 90:10, 80:20, 60:40 and 40:60) as eluent to give 277 mg (87%) of the sub-title compound.
