4-Toluenesulfonyl chloride → HCID 12461847, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of sodium-1-formyl-piperidine-2-carboxylate (2.0 g) (Reference Example 7) in dichloromethane (50 mL) at ambient temperature under nitrogen was added para-toluenesulfonyl chloride (2.31 g). After stirring for 10 minutes the mixture was treated dropwise with acrylonitrile (0.88 mL) and triethylamine (1.5 mL) and stirring was continued for a further 1 hour when a second portion of triethylamine (1.0 mL) was added. The reaction mixture was stirred for 18 hours and the dichloromethane removed in vacuo. The residue was taken up in water (50 mL) and extracted with ethyl acetate (200 mL). The combined organic extracts were evaporated in vacuo and the residue was subjected to flash column chromatography on silica eluting with a mixture of ethyl acetate and pentane (1:4, v/v) to give the title compound (1.38 g) as an orange oil, MS: 147 (MH+). 1H NMR(CDCl3): δ 6.48 (1H, d, J=3.1 Hz); 6.36 (1H, d, J=3.1 Hz); 3.91 (2H, t, J=6.0 Hz); 2.89 (2H, t, J=6.0 Hz); 1.98 (2H, m); 1.88 (2H, m).
