Tert-Butylamine → N-tert-butyl-4-fluorobenzenesulfonamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

Into a DCM solution (50 mL) of tert-butylamine (5.9 mL, 56.5 mmol) and triethylamine (7.16 mL, 51.3 mmol) at 0° C. was slowly added a DCM solution (20 mL) of 4-fluoro-benzenesulfonyl chloride (10 g, 51.3 mmol), and the reaction stirred at RT for 19 h. The reaction was concentrated and the resulting solid recrystalized from ether/hexanes to get the product (9.5 g, 80%) as white crystals. MS: APCI (AP+): 230.1 (M)+.
