Methanesulfonic Acid → HCID 11632286, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Sodium periodate (43 mg) was added to a solution of 4-[4-(phenethylamino-methyl)-phenylsulfanyl]-benzamide (73 mg, 0.2 mmol), water (10 mL), and methane sulfonic acid (39 mg, 0.4 mmol) while stirring at room temperature. After 1 and 2 hours, and an additional equivalent of sodium periodate (43 mg) and continue to stir at room temperature. Pour the reaction into saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution then extract with ethyl acetate (3×50 mL). The combined ethyl acetate extracts were dried over sodium chloride/magnesium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated on a rotary evaporator to yield the crude product (60 mg). The crude product was purified by flash column chromatography on silica gel eluting with 10% aqueous ammonium hydroxide in ethanol and chloroform to yield 4-[4-(Phenethylamino-methyl)-benzenesulfinyl]-benzamide (26 mg): 1H NMR (DMSO-D6, 300.00 MHz): 8.98 (d, 1H, J=1.3 Hz), 8.46 (dd, 1H, J=7.9, 2.2 Hz), 8.23 (s, 1H), 8.09 (d, 1H, J=8.3 Hz), 7.75-7.66 (m, 4H), 7.49 (d, 2H, J=8.3 Hz), 7.30-7.15 (m, 5H), 3.76 (s, 2H), 2.75-2.70 (m, 4H); m/z=380.04(M+1); HPLC=100% @ 5.67 minutes (5/95 to 95/5 ACN/(0.1% TFA in water) over 10 minutes, Zorbax SB-Phenyl 4.6 mm×15 cm×5 micron, λ=254 nM.
