Pyrrolidine → 1-((3-Bromo-4-fluorophenyl)sulfonyl)pyrrolidine

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 3-bromo-4-fluorobenzene-1-sulfonyl chloride (0.83 g, 2.73 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (10 mL) under argon was added diisopropylethylamine (0.525 mL, 3.00 mmol) followed by pyrrolidine (0.183 mL, 2.73 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 2 hours. The reaction mixture was partitioned between diethyl ether and aqueous ammonium chloride. The organic layer was separated, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated. The resulting residue was triturated with diethyl ether/heptane at −20° C. to provide the title compound (0.56 g, 67% yield).
