Procedure

196 b) To a suspension of N-(2-bromo-phenyl)-methanesulfonamide (5.01 g, 20.0 mmol) and cesium carbonate (7.2 g, 22 mmol) in acetonitrile (20 mL) was added iodomethane (1.4 mL, 22 mmol). The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 24 hours then diluted with dichloromethane (30 mL), filtered through a plug of diatomaceous earth and evaporated. N-(2-Bromo-phenyl)-N-methyl-methanesulfonamide was isolated as a pale orange solid (5.22 g, 98%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3, δ, ppm): 7.65 (d, J=8.0 Hz, 1H), 7.50 (d, J=7.9 Hz, 1H), 7.37 (t, J=7.4 Hz, 1H), 7.23 (t, J=8.2 Hz, 1H), 3.29 (s, 3H), 3.06 (s, 3H). MS=286, 288 (MH)+.
