Participants

Reaction Steps

A reaction mixture of 3.0 g (12 mmol) of 4-amino-6-butoxy-2,2-dimethylchroman, 4.9 g (48 mmol) of triethylamine and 1.65 g (14.4 mmol) of methanesulfonyl chloride in 25 ml of THF was stirred at RT for 3 h. After concentrating, the residue was taken up in water and extracted with EA. After drying and concentrating, the product was crystallized using PE and 2.25 g of 6-butoxy-4-(methylsulfonyl)amino-2,2-dimethylchroman were obtained; m.p. 123-127° C.
