Triethylamine → 2-[5-(4-Cyanophenyl)-2,3-dihydro-1-benzofuran-2-yl]ethyl methanesulfonate

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of Example 67C (0.23 g, 0.87 mmol) and methanesulfonyl chloride (0.075 mL, 0.96 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (5 mL) at 0° C. was added triethylamine (0.13 mL, 9.4 mmol). The mixture was stirred for 30 minutes, diluted with CH2Cl2 (75 mL), washed with water (3×100 mL), dried (Na2SO4), filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified on silica using CH2Cl2 to provide the titled compound (0.278 g, 90%). 1HNMR (CDCl3): H NMR: 1.95 (m, 2H), 2.93 (m, 2H), 3.00 (s, 3H), 3.46 (m, 2H), 5.00 (m, 1H), 6.81 (d, J=7 Hz, 1H), 7.40 (m, 2H), 7.65 (m, 4H); MS (DCI) 343 (M+), 361 (M+NH4+).
