Dimethylformamide → HCID 66916104, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of N-(1-dimethylamino-methylidene)-2-nitro-6-hydroxy-benzenesulfonamide (847 mg, 3.1 mmol) in DMF (10 mL) NaH (135 mg, 55% dispersion in Nujol, 3.1 mmol) is added under argon. After stirring for 15 min 2,2,2-trifluoro-ethyl iodide (2777 mg, 12.4 mmol) is added, and stirring is continued for 20 h. Volatiles are evaporated under reduced pressure, and the residue is partitioned between EtOAc and water. The organic phase is washed with saturated brine, dried (Na2SO4) and evaporated. Chromatography of the residue (silica gel, hexanes/EtOAc/acetone 2:1:3) gives N-(1-dimethylamino-methylidene)-2-nitro-6-(2,2,2-trifluoro-ethoxy)-benzenesulfonamide.
