Methanesulfonyl chloride → HCID 59313790, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a suspension of 3-amino-5-nitrobenzonitrile (161 mg, 0.987 mmol) in DCM (8 mL) was added TEA (0.55 mL, 3.95 mmol), followed by methanesulfonyl chloride (0.165 mL, 2.12 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 60 min., then diluted with DCM, washed with H2O, dried over Na2SO4, and concentrated. The crude solid was triturated with DCM and isolated by filtration to give Intermediate 76A (242 mg, 76%) as a white solid. HPLC: Rt=1.198 min. (CHROMOLITH® column 4.6×50 mm eluting with 10-90% aqueous methanol over 4 min. containing 0.1% TFA, 4 mL/min, monitoring at 220 nm). 1H NMR (500 MHz, CDCl3) δ ppm 8.65 (1H, s), 8.45 (1H, s), 7.98 (1H, s), 3.48 (6H, s).
