4-Chlorobenzenesulfonyl chloride → (2S,4R)-1-allyloxycarbonyl-2-p-chlorobenzenesulfonyloxy methyl-4-methanesulfonyloxypyrrolidine

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of (2S,4R)-1-allyloxycarbonyl-4-methanesulfonyloxypyrrolidine-2-methanol (13.4 g: 50 mmole) in dichloromethane (50 ml), p-chlorobenzenesulfonyl chloride (12.66 g: 60 mmole) is added in a nitrogen atmosphere at room temperature and a solution of triethylamine (8.69 ml: 62.5 mmole) in dichloromethane (10 ml) is further added dropwise. The mixture is stirred at room temperature overnight. The reaction mixture is successively washed with aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate and saturated brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, concentrated in vacuo, and purified by silica gel chromatography (toluene-ethyl acetate) to give crude (2S,4R)-1-allyloxycarbonyl-2-p-chlorobenzenesulfonyloxymethyl-4-methanesulfonyloxypyrrolidine (23.73 g) as oil. Yield: 105%.
