4-Aminophenol → 4-Chloro-N-[3-(4-hydroxy-phenylamino)-quinoxalin-2-yl]-benzenesulfonamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 4-aminophenol (22 mg, 0.2 mmol) in xylenes (2 mL), was treated with 4-chloro-N-(3-chloro-quinoxalin-2-yl)-benzenesulfonamide (35.4 mg, 0.1 mmol) in one portion. The reaction mixture was heated under reflux in an inert atmosphere of nitrogen for 25 h. Reaction progress was monitored by TLC. Upon completion of the reaction, the mixture was cooled, which resulted in compound 5-4 precipitating from the solution as red-yellow crystals. The crystals were filtered and washed with hot methanol (5 mL) and pentane (5×5 mL). Yield 60%, mp=298-301° C. TLC Rf=0.35 (hexanes/EtOAc 1:1). 1H NMR (DMSO-d6, 600 MHz): δ 6.75 (d, J=8.4 Hz, 2H), 7.30 (t, J=7.2 Hz, 1H), 7.35 (t, J=7.2 Hz, 1H), 7.66 (d, J=8.4 Hz, 2H), 7.69 (d, J=7.8 Hz, 2H), 7.89 (br.s, 1H), 8.11 (d, J=7.8 Hz, 2H), 8.81 (br.s, 1H), 9.30 (br.s, 1H), 12.29 (br.s, 1H). HPLC/MS: [M+H]+ m/z 426. HRMS: Calcd. [M+H]+ m/z 427.0632, Observed 427.0644.
