2-Methoxyethylamine → N-(2-methoxyethyl)methanesulfonamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirring solution of 2-methoxyethylamine (0.58 ml) in dichloromethane (10 ml) was added triethylamine (1.0 ml) and methanesulphonyl chloride (0.51 ml). The mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. The solvents were removed in vacuo to give a crude product which was purified by flash chromatography to give N-(2-Methoxy-ethyl)-methanesulfonamide (0.74 g).
