Reaction Steps

A solution of 2,4-difluoro-5-nitrobenzenesulfonyl chloride (21 g, 81 mmol) in THF (400 mL) at −60° C. was treated with methylamine hydrochloride (6.6 g, 97 mmol) and then treated dropwise with triethylamine (22.6 mL, 162 mmol). After stirring for 6 hours at −60 to −40° C. the mixture was adjusted to pH 3 with the addition of 15% aqueous HCl, diluted with water, and extracted with EtOAc. The organic extracts were dried (Na2SO4), concentrated, and subjected to flash chromatography (17% EtOAc-petroleum ether) to give 2,4-difluoro-N-methyl-5-nitrobenzenesulfonamide (8 g, 38%) as a brown solid. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ ppm 8.66-8.74 (m, 1 H), 7.20-7.25 (m, 1 H), 4.81-4.91 (m, 1 H), 2.78-2.81 (m, 3 H).
