Hydrochloric Acid → N-(2-bromo-5-nitrophenyl)methanesulfonamide

Methansulfonyl chloride (1.26 g, 18.43 mmol) was added to a 0° C. solution of 4-nitro-2-aminobromobenzene (1.6 g, 7.37 mmol) and triethlyamine (1.86 g, 18.43 mmol) in 20 ml of CH2Cl2. The reaction mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature and stirred 72 hr. The mixture was poured onto 50 ml of 1M HCl and extracted with 2×100 ml ethyl acetate. The extracts were washed with brine then dried (anhydrous MgSO4) and concentrated. The material was dissolved in 10 ml of methanol and treated with 10 ml of 3M NaOH solution. The mixture was stirred overnight. The methanol was removed at reduced pressure, then 10 ml of water were added and the solution was washed with 50 ml of CH2Cl2. The aqueous was acidified to pH 1 by the dropwise addition of concentrated HCl. The product was extracted with ethyl acetate (2×75 ml). The extracts were dried (anhydrous MgSO4) and concentrated to give 2.46 g of N-(2-bromo-5-nitrophenyl)methanesulfonamide.
