4-Toluenesulfonyl chloride → 2-(5-Bromo-1-benzofuran-2-yl)ethyl 4-methylbenzenesulfonate

Temperature

50 °C

The product from Example 4A (1.21 g, 5.0 mmol), 4-dimethylaminopyridine (0.06 g, 0.5 mmol), and triethylamine (1.5 mL, 10.5 mmol) were combined in dichloromethane (20 mL) stirred briefly and treated with para-toluenesulfonyl chloride (1.91 g, 10.0 mmol) in dichloromethane (2 mL) over about 5 minutes. After stirring at about 22° C. for 3 hours, the mixture was then washed with saturated NaHCO3 solution (20 mL, 2×), brine (20 mL), dried over Na2SO4, and distilled to dryness. The residue in acetonitrile (˜5 mL) was heated at 50° C. to effect dissolution, allowed to cool to room temperature slowly, and then cooled to about 0° C. The slurry was filtered and the obtained solid dried under reduced pressure at 40° C. to provide the title compound (0.95 g, 48% yield).
