Methanesulfonyl chloride → (S)-Glycidyl N-Methylsulfonyl-m-Aminophenyl Ether

Participants

Reaction Steps

Compound 16b-S (0.4 g, 2.4 mmol) dissolved in 20 ml anhydrous DCM, and N,N-diisopropyl-N-ethylamine (0.45 ml, 2.6 mmol) was added at 0° C. After stirring for 15 minutes, methanesulfonyl chloride (0.2 ml, 2.6 mmol) was added to the reaction mixture at 0° C. After stirring overnight, the reaction mixture was extracted with water and washed with brine. The organic phase was dried and evaporated. The residue was purified with flash chromatography using ethyl acetate:DCM (30:70) solvent to give a colorless oil (45% yield).
