2-Methylbenzenesulfonamide → HCID 9825050, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of the carboxylic acid (Example 33) (0.5 g), 2-methylbenzene sulphonamide (0.28 g), 1-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-3-ethyl-carbodiimide hydrochloride (0.37 g) and 4-dimethylaminopyridine (0.05 g) in dichloromethane (6 ml) was stirred at room temperature for 72 hours. The reaction mixture was diluted with dichloromethane and washed with water and brine. The organic phase was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulphate, filtered and evaporated in vacuo. Purification by flash chromatography on silica, eluting with 0-2% ethyl acetate in dichloromethane, gave a yellow oil which, on crystallisation from methanol, afforded N-[1-(3-nitrobenzyl)indolin-5-ylcarbonyl]-2-methylbenzene sulphonamide, m.p. 159°-163° C.
