Acetyl chloride → N,N-dimethyl-3-methyl-4-(N-acetyl-N-trifluoromethanesulfonylamino)benzenesulfonamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of N,N-dimethyl-3-methyl-4-(trifluoromethanesulfonamido)benzenesulfonamide (1.5 g) and triethylamine (0.65 g) in tetrahydrofuran (40 ml), acetyl chloride (0.51 g) was added, and the resultant mixture was stirred at room temperature for 3 hours. The reaction mixture was concentrated and solidified with water. The solidified product was recrystallized from a mixture of ethanol and toluene to give 1.29 g of N,N-dimethyl-3-methyl-4-(N-acetyl-N-trifluoromethanesulfonylamino)benzenesulfonamide (Compound No. 86). M.P., 148°-148.5° C.
