Reaction Steps

To a partial solution of 5-[2-(dimethylamino)ethylthiomethyl]-2-sulfamoylbenzo[b]thiophene (1.32 g, 0.004 mol) in 20 ml of ethanol and 40 ml of water was added sodium metaperiodate (0.94 g, 0.0044 mol) and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 16 hours over night. The reaction mixture was filtered and the filtrate was evaporated to dryness in vacuo. The white solid residue was recrystallized twice from 4/1 (V/V) water/ethanol and chromatographed on silica gel eluting with 7.5% (V/V) methanol/CHCl3. There was recovered 0.88 g of white solid, m.p. 180°-183° C., dec. (Yield 64%).
