Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

5-Amino-4-bromo-3-tert-butylisoxazole (440 mg, 2.0 mmol) was dissolved in dry pyridine (2 ml). Benzenesulfonyl chloride (344 mg, 2.0 mmol) and 4-dimethylamino-pyridine (5 mg) was added and the reaction was stirred at 50° C. for 16 h. The reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate (20 ml), washed with 1N HCl (2×10 ml) and the organic phase was dried over magnesium sulfate. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure to yield a crude product, which was recrystallized from ethyl acetate/hexanes to give 300 mg (60% yield) of N-benzenesulfonyl-N-(4-bromo-3-tert-butyl-5-isoxazolyl)benzenesulfonamide.
