Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred mixture of 5.0 g (0.024 N-cyanomethyl-1-naphthamide (the product of Example 11) and 6.2 g (0.026 mole) 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethylsulfenyl chloride in 125 ml methylene chloride, 3.0 g (0.030 mole) triethylamine in 25 ml methylene chloride were dropped in over 40 minutes. The reaction mixture was stirred 30 minutes. The reaction mixture was washed three times with 75 ml portions of water, dried over magnesium sulfate, and stripped down to a volume of 50 ml. The methylene chloride solution was then chromatographed on a column containing about 125 g silica gel, eluting with methylene chloride. The eluate was stripped to give 4.3 g of the above-identified product as an amber glass which tended to crystallize slowly.
