Reaction Steps

To a 25 ml round bottom flask, 0.21 g 4-methoxybenzenesulfonyl chloride and 0.08 mL of pyridine were dissolved in 10 ml of MTBE. To this solution was added 0.2 g of 2-(2-anilinoethyl)pyridine. The reaction was heated at reflux for one hour and then let cool down to room temperature. To the reaction was added 10 mL of water. The organic layer was separated and washed with 10 mL of water. The organic layer was dried over MgSO4, filtered, and concentrated to yield a brown oil. The oil was purified on silica gel to recover 0.3 g of a tanned solid with the following spectroscopic properties:
