Triethylamine → N-(2-(1,1-dioxido-4-thiomorpholinyl)ethyl)-2-nitrobenzenesulfonamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 4-(2-aminoethyl)thiomorpholine 1,1-dioxide (2.00 g, 11.2 mmol) and triethylamine (1.42 g, 14.0 mmol) in DCM (100 mL) was cooled in an ice bath and treated slowly with 2-nitrobenzene-1-sulfonyl chloride (2.49 g, 11.2 mmol). The mixture was removed from the ice bath and stirred at rt for 18 h. The resulting mixture was washed with water (2×50 mL) and the combined aqueous washes were extracted with DCM (50 mL). The organic phases were combined, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo to a yellow solid. Purification by silica gel chromatography (linear gradient 100% DCM to 100:1 DCM:MeOH) gave the title compound as a pale yellow solid (3.47 g, 85% yield). LCMS: m/z 364 (M+H+), retention time 0.98 min (method 11). 1H NMR (500 MHz, CHLOROFORM-d) δ ppm 2.71 (t, J=5.49 Hz, 2H) 2.96 (br. s., 4H) 3.05 (br. s., 4H) 3.20 (q, J=5.49 Hz, 2H) 5.93 (br. s., 1H) 7.73-7.84 (m, 2H) 7.84-7.93 (m, 1H) 8.11-8.23 (m, 1H).
