4-Bromoaniline → N-(4-Bromophenyl)methanesulfonamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 4-bromoaniline (1.00 g, 5.81 mmol) and methanesulfonyl chloride (1 eq) in dichloromethane (10 mL) and pyridine (5 mL) was stirred at rt for 18 h. The resultant mixture was then diluted with dichloromethane and washed with water and then brine. The organic phase was collected, dried (MgSO4) and concentrated in vacuo to give N-(4-bromophenyl)methanesulfonamide.
