5-(9-acetyl-9H-carbazole-2-carbonyl)-2-chloro-benzenesulfonamide → HCID 66850484, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 0.5 g of 5-(9-acetyl-9H-carbazole-2-carbonyl)-2-chloro-benzenesulfonamide and 20 mL of potassium hydroxide solution (10% in water) is heated at reflux overnight and is allowed to cool to room temperature. The reaction mixture is extracted with ethyl acetate, washed with water then a saturated sodium chloride solution, and dried over sodium sulfate. After concentration the residue is loaded on Celite and purified by silica gel chromatography (1:1 hexanes/ethyl acetate) to give 5-(9H-carbazole-2-carbonyl)-2-chloro-benzenesulfonamide as dark orange crystals. MS (m/z): 385 (M+1).
