Procedure

Preparation of 3-bromo-5-fluorobenzaldehyde (XLIX) (2.03 g, 10.0 mmol) in DCE (50 mL) was added methanesulfonamide (1.43 g, 15.0 mmol) and TEA (2.79 mL, 20.0 mmol). The solution was stirred for a few minutes before NaBH(OAc)3 (3.00 g, 14.1 mmol) was added. The reaction was stirred at room temperature overnight. The solvent was removed under vacuum and the residue was partitioned between EtOAc and water. The organic layer was separated, dried over MgSO4 and evaporated under vacuum to give N-(3-bromo-5-fluorobenzyl)methanesulfonamide (L) as a clear oil (2.65 g, 9.39 mmol, 99% yield). ESIMS found C8H9BrFNO2S m/z 282 (M+H).
