4-Toluenesulfonyl chloride → HCID 51900550, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2.18 g (18.75 mmol) of (2S)-oxan-2-ylmethanol in pyridine (25 mL) are added 7.15 g (37.5 mmol) of p-toluenesulfonylchloride portionwise at 10° C. After complete addition the reaction is allowed to warm to room temperature and stirred for 18 h. The reaction is poured onto a stirred mixture of 6M aqueous HCl/ice. The mixture is extracted with DCM (3×25 mL). The organic layer is dried (MgSO4), filtered and the filtrate is concentrated under reduced pressure to give 3.91 g of (2S)-oxan-2-ylmethyl 4-methylbenzene-1-sulfonate.
