Reaction Steps

The amine product of Reaction Example 8, N-(5-amino-2-methoxyphenyl)-2,2,5-trimethyl-β-oxo-1,3-dioxane-5-propanamide, (18.5 parts) and N,N-dimethylaniline (8.5 parts) are combined in tetrahydrofuran (250 parts) and a solution of 1-hexadecylsulfonyl chloride (17.9 parts) dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (25 parts) is added dropwise with stirring, ca. 0.5 hr. The reaction is allowed to stand several hours and subsequently poured into cold water (600 parts) containing concentrated hydrochloric acid (5 parts). The crude product is extracted with ethyl ether and the ethereal layer washed once with sodium bicarbonate solution, once with water, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and subsequently flash evaporated in vacuo to give a light tan product in 90% of theoretical yield. Analytical samples are crystallized from ethyl alcohol, m.p. 83-85° C. Proton NMR and combustion analysis are consistent with those values predicted for the desired product. Combustion Analysis for C33H56N2O6S--Calculated: C, 65.1%; H, 9.3%; N, 4.6%; S, 5.3%. Found: C, 65.6%; H, 9.1; N, 4.4%; S, 5.0%.
