Methanesulfonyl chloride → N-(2-(Morpholine-4-carbonyl)-5-nitrophenyl)methanesulfonamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

Methanesulfonyl chloride (0.179 mL, 2.302 mmol) was added to a solution of (2-amino-4-nitrophenyl)(morpholino)methanone (0.5783 g, 2.302 mmol) in pyridine (3 mL) at 0° C. After 30 min at 0° C., the pyridine solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The resulting brown oil was triturated with hot CH2Cl2 and filtered. The filtrate was concentrated and purified by silica gel chromatography, eluting with 30-100% EtOAc in hexanes, to give the expected product as yellow solid (108 mg, 14% yield). LCMS: (M+H)+=330.0. 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ ppm 9.83 (1H, s), 8.24 (1H, d, J=2.26 Hz), 8.07 (1H, dd, J=8.41, 1.88 Hz), 7.61 (1 H, d, J=8.53 Hz), 3.69 (2H, d, J=4.02 Hz), 3.61 (2H, br. s.), 3.57 (2H, d, J=4.27 Hz), 3.16-3.22 (2H, m), 3.10 (3H, s).
