Acetic Anhydride → 4-Sulfamoylphenyl acetate

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of sodium hydroxide (116 mg, 2.9 mmoles) in water (10 ml) was added to a stirred solution of 4-hydroxy-benzenesulphonamide (500 mg, 2.9 mmoles) in water (30 ml). This mixture was treated with acetic anhydride (295 mg, 2.9 mmoles) and stirred at room temperature for 4.5 hours. The reaction mixture was filtered off and the resulting solid washed with water to afford acetic acid 4-sulphamoyl-phenyl ester (33)(348 mg) as a yellow solid. LC/MS System A; Rt 2.06 mins.
