Reaction Steps

An oven dried 20 ml scintillation vial containing N-(3-(3,6-dibromo-9H-carbazol-9-yl)-2-hydroxypropyl)-N-(3-methoxyphenyl)-4-nitrobenzenesulfonamide (18.3 mg, 0.027 mmol; see representative procedure 3 above) was purged with N2 and charged with anhydrous dichloromethane (1.5 ml, 0.018 M). The sealed vial was cooled in a dry ice acetone bath before the dropwise addition of diethylaminosulfur trifluoride (DAST, 7 ul, 0.053 mmol). The reaction temperature was maintained at −78° C. for an hour and then slowly warmed to room temperature and stirred overnight. The reaction was quenched with 2.0 ml of saturated NaHCO3 solution and diluted with 6 ml CH2Cl2 and extracted three times. The combined organics were dried over Na2SO4, filtered and condensed. Crude product carried forward. Quantitative yield.
