4-Methoxybenzenesulfonyl chloride → Ethyl[{4-[(dodecylamino)carbonyl]benzyl}({1-[(4-methoxyphenyl)-sulfonyl]piperidin-4-yl}methyl)amino](oxo)acetate

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of ethyl[{4-[(dodecylamino)carbonyl]benzyl}(piperidin-4-ylmethyl)amino](oxo)acetate hydrochloride (900 mg, 1.63 mmol), DIAE (527 mg, 4.07 mmol) and DMAP (20 mg, 0.16 mmol) in anhydrous THF (50 mL) was added 4-methoxybenzene-sulfonyl chloride (404 mg, 1.96 mmol) dissolved in THF (2.0 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred 14 h at rt. The solvent was evaporated and the resulting residue was dissolved in DCM (100 mL), washed with water (20 mL) and the aqueous layer was extracted with DCM (3×50 mL). The combined organic layers were dried over MgSO4, filtered and evaporated under vacuum. The crude product was purified by column chromatography over silica gel (AcOEt/c-Hex 1/4 to 1/1 in about 1 h) to give the title compound as a white foam (992 mg, 89%). 1H NMR (CDCl3, 300 MHz) δ 7.76 (d, 2H, J=8.3 Hz), 7.69 (d, 2H, J=9.2 Hz), 7.27 (t, 2H, J=7.9 Hz), 7.07 (m, 2H), 6.12 (m, 1H), 4.60 (s, 1H), 4.48 (s, 1H), 3.89 (s, 3H), 3.76 (m, 2H), 3.13 (d, 1H, J=6.8 Hz), 3.07 (d, 1H, J=7.0 Hz), 2.32-2.12 (m, 2H), 1.80-1.55 (m, 6H), 1.45-1.20 (m, 24H), 0.89 (t, 3H, J=7.9 Hz). M−(APCI): 684.4. HPLC (Condition A), Rt: 6.84 min (HPLC purity: 99.7%).
