Sodium Iodide → 3-(3-Iodopropylsulfonylamino)-2-methoxy-1-octadecylcarbamoylthiopropane

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 197 mg (0.354 mM) of 3-(3-chloropropylsulfonylamino)-2-methoxy-1-octadecylcarbamoylthiopropane IIIa6 in 7 ml of methyl ethyl ketone is added 265 mg (1.77 mM) of sodium iodide and the mixture is heated under refluxing for 3 hours with stirring. After the solvent is evaporated, the residue is purified by the column chromatography on silica gel with a n-hexane-ethyl acetate (3:1) mixture as an eluent to give 197 mg (0.304 mM) of 3-(3-iodopropylsulfonylamino)-2-methoxy-1-octadecylcarbamoylthiopropane IIa6 in 86% yield.
