Procedure
Methyl 4-(N-(4-methoxybenzyl)sulfamoyl)benzoate (Example 5-10b) (4.3 g, 12.8 mmol) was dissolved in acetone (70 mL). Cesium carbonate (8.57 g, 25.6 mmol) and (4-fluorobenzyl bromide (1.76 mL, 14.08 mmol) were added and the mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. The inorganic salts were filtered off and acetone was removed in vacuo. The residue was re-dissolved in ethyl acetate, washed with water and brine, then the organic layer was dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated. The crude product was purified by re-crystallization with ethyl acetate/hexanes to afford pure Methyl 4-(N-(4-fluorobenzyl)-N-(4-methoxybenzyl)sulfamoyl)benzoate (3.7 g, 65%) as a white solid. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ, ppm: 3.77 (s, 3H), 3.98 (s, 3H), 4.27 (s, 2H), 4.28 (s, 2H), 6.74 (d, 2H, J=8 Hz), 6.92 (m, 4H), 7.03 (m, 2H), 7.88 (d, 2H J=8 Hz), 8.16 (d, 2H, J=8 Hz).
