Diisopropylethylamine → HCID 131725142, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

2-methyl-(L)-proline, methyl ester hydrochloride (95 gm, 52.9 mmol) was dissolved in a mixture (1:1) of dry THF and CH2Cl2 (250 mL). A solution of 3,5-dichlorobenzenesulfonyl chloride (13.0 gm, 52.9 mmol) in dry CH2Cl2 (20 mL) was added. The reaction was cooled in an ice bath and diisopropylethylamine (20.5 gm, 158.6 mmol) was added. The ice bath was removed and the reaction mixture was stirred overnight at rt. The reaction was concentrated and dried to a tan solid (18.68 gm). This solid was purified on a Biotage 40M chromatography system eluted with 10% EtOAc in hexanes to yield N-(3,5-dichlorobenzenesulfonyl)-2-methyl-(L)-proline, methyl ester as a pure white solid (16.8 gm, 85% yield).
