Methanesulfonyl chloride → Ethyl 3-(2-(4-fluorophenyl)-3-(methylcarbamoyl)-6-(methylsulfonamido)benzofuran-5-yl)benzoate

Participants

Reaction Steps

Methanesulfonyl chloride (303 μL, 3.88 mmol) was added to a stirring solution of ethyl 3-(6-amino-2-(4-fluorophenyl)-3-(methylcarbamoyl)benzofuran-5-yl)benzoate (1.40 g, 3.24 mmol) in pyridine (32 mL) at 25° C. It was allowed to stir overnight at rt. The reaction was concentrated and was purified on silica gel (BIOTAGE®, EtOAc/hexanes gradient, fraction collection at λ=254 nm) to give the titled compound (1.01 g, 61%). LC-MS retention time: 1.53 min; m/z (MH+): 511. LC data was recorded on a Shimadzu LC-10AS liquid chromatograph equipped with a Waters XBridge 5u C18 4.6×50 mm column using a SPD-10AV UV-Vis detector at a detector wave length of 220 nM. The elution conditions employed a flow rate of 5 ml/min, a gradient of 100% solvent A/0% solvent B to 0% solvent A/100% solvent B, a gradient time of 2 min, a hold time of 1 min, and an analysis time of 3 min where solvent A was 5% acetonitrile/95% H2O/10 mM ammonium acetate and solvent B was 5% H2O/95% acetonitrile/10 mM ammonium acetate. MS data was determined using a MICROMASS® Platform for LC in electrospray mode.
