Triethylamine → N-(2-iodophenyl)methanesulfonamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To the mixture of the 2-iodo-4-chloroaniline (5.0 g, 20 mmol) and triethylamine (8.3 mL, 60 mmol) in methylene chloride (200 mL), the solution of methanesulfonyl chloride (3.4 mL, 44 mmol) was added slowly. The solution then was stirred at room temperature for 2 h. After being washed by HCl solution (0.5 N, 2×100 mL), NaOH solution (0.5 N, 2×100 mL), brine (100 mL), the organic layer was dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated providing the title compound (6.6 g).
