Acetic Acid → 5-[4-(Pyrrole-1-yl)phenylsulfonyl]isoquinoline

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture solution of 4-(5-isoquinolylsulfonyl)aniline 300 mg (1.1 mmol), 2,5-dimethoxytetrahydrofuran 160 mg (1.2 mmol) and acetic acid 2 ml was heated and refluxed for 1 hour. Water was added to the reaction solution, and the solution was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with saturated sodium hydrogencarbonate and saturated sodium chloride, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting residue was recrystalized from ethyl acetate-hexane to give 5-[4-(pyrrole-1-yl)phenylsulfonyl]isoquinoline 280 mg (83.0%).
