Piperidine → N-[2-Chloro-4-(piperidinosulphonyl)phenyl]-2-hydroxy-2-methylpropanamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of N-[2-chloro-4-(fluorosulphonyl)phenyl]-2-acetoxy-2-methylpropanamide (Method B) (340 mg, 1 mmol), 4-dimethylaminopyridine (10 mg, 0.08 mmol) and piperidine (0.1 ml, 1 mmol) in acetonitrile (5 ml) was heated under reflux for 18 h. After evaporation to dryness, the residue was dissolved in 1% aqueous ethanol (10 ml) and lithium hydroxide monohydrate (84 mg, 2 mmol) was added. The mixture was stirred for 2 h at ambient temperature, then EtOAc (25 ml) was added. The resulting solution was washed with water, dried and evaporated to dryness. The residue was purified by column chromatography using 50% EtOAc/isohexane to yield the title compound as an oil (226 mg, 0.6 mmol). NMR: 1.4 (s, 6H), 1.5 (m, 6H), 2.9 (m, 4H), 6.2 (d, 1H), 7.7 (d, 1H), 7.8 (m, 1H), 8.6 (d, 1H), 9.8 (s, 1H); MS: 361 (M+H)+.
