Diethyl Ether → N-amino-2-(1-butynyl)pyridinium mesitylenesulfonate

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2-(1-butynyl)pyridine (12.8 g) dissolved in dichloromethane (60 mL) was added a solution of O-mesitylenesulfonylhydroxylamine (Reference; Synthesis, 1997, 1) (20 g) in dichloromethane (132 mL) while cooling with ice, and the reaction mixture was stirred for 30 minutes. Diethyl ether (2 L) was added to the reaction mixture to precipitate crystals, which were filtered off and then dried under reduced pressure to afford a crude product of N-amino-2-(1-butynyl)pyridinium mesitylenesulfonate (12.6 g) as colorless crystals.
