Triethylamine → HCID 58522007, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A cooled (0° C.) solution of (4-bromo-3-fluorophenyl)methanol (Intermediate 9; 299 mg; 1.46 mmol) and methanesulfonyl chloride (147 μL; 1.90 mmol) in DCM (3 mL) was treated slowly with a solution of triethylamine (305 μL; 2.19 mmol) in DCM (1.5 mL). The reaction mixture was allowed to warm to RT and stirred for 45 minutes before being quenched by addition of water. The organic phase was washed with HCl (0.1N in water) and brine, dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated to dryness affording a residue, which was purified by flash column chromatography, eluting with cyclohexane containing increasing amounts of EtOAc to give the title compound as a colourless liquid.
