HCID 1049PyridineSolvent

Procedure

2-Amino-2,3-dimethyl-N-(p-tolylsulfonyl)butyramide hydrochloride (45 g ~0.4 mols) is completely dissolved in 160 mL of pyridine and 500 mL of THF is added. Acetic anhydride (45 mL) is then poured into the solution and the reaction mixture is heated at reflux for one hour. The solvents are removed under reduced pressure, and the oily residue is crystallized from EtOH/water affording 33.09 g of the title product having m.p. 198°-199° C.
