Methyl sulfonyl chloride

The combinatorial reactions chosen for the novel amines were amide bond formation and sulfonamide formation. The novel carboxylic acids were derivatized to simple amides. For the amine reactions, we chose two simple carboxylic acids (propionic acid and benzoic acid) and two simple sulfonyl chlorides (methyl-sulfonyl chloride and benzenesulfonyl chloride) as the capping groups. Propyl amine and benzylamine were chosen as the capping groups to react with the novel carboxylic acids. Because only one reactant will be variable, these combinatorial libraries were essentially 1 x N libraries, where the one reactant was a simple reactant and the N component is the novel amines or acids. 

Cyclization of Hydroxamates i-Cysteine-derived thiazolidine hydroxamate ester 71 is cyclized to the thiazolidine-fused fS-lactams 72 using methyl sulfonyl chloride [63]. The cleavage of the thiazolidine ring with methoxycarbonylsulfenyl chloride afforded the monocyclic fS-lactam 74 (Scheme 3.28). An Sml2-mediated scission of the N-O bond in 72 followed by cleavage of the thiazolidine ring afforded the NH monocyclic -lactam 73 in reasonable yield (Scheme 3.28). 

The iso)tazole ring is rather resistant to sulfonation. However, on prolonged heating with chlorosulfonic acid, 5-methyl-, 3-methyl- and 3,5-diraethyl-isoxazoles are converted into a mixture of the sulfonic acid and the corresponding sulfonyl chloride. The sulfonic acid group enters the 4-position even when other positions are available for substitution. The sulfonation of the parent isoxazole occurs only under more drastic conditions (20% oleum) than that of alkyl isoxazoles isoxazole-4-sulfonic acid is obtained in 17% yield. In the case of 5-phenylisoxazole (64), only the phenyl nucleus is sulfonated to yield a mixture of m-and p-arenesulfonic acid chlorides (65) and (66) in a 2 1 ratio (63AHC(2)365). 

Finally, certain 3-substituted compounds can be prepared by utilizing the - meta) directing powet (cf. Section IV,B) of some groups in the 2-position which afterward can be removed. 3-Nitrothiophene is prepared by nitration of 2-thiophenesulfonyl chloride and by removal of the sulfonic acid group of the 4-nitro-2-sulfonyl chloride formed with superheated steam. Another approach to 3-nitrothio-phene is to nitrate 2-cyanothiophene, separate the 4-nitro-2-cyano-thiophene from the 5-isomer, hydrolyze, and decarboxylate. A final method of preparation of 3-nitrothiophene is by simultaneous de-bromination and decarboxylation of 5-bromo-4-nitro-2-thiophene-carboxylic acid obtained through the nitration of methyl 5-bromo-2-thiophenecarboxylate. 

In a further development on this theme, the thiol, 153, is first alkylated to the corresponding benzyl ether (158). Treatment with sodium methoxide removes the proton on the amide nitrogen to afford the ambient anion (159). This undergoes alkylation with methyl bromide on the ring nitrogen thus it locks amide into the imine form (160). Chlorolysis serves both to oxidize the sulfur to the sulfone stage and to cleave the benzyl ether linkage there is thus obtained the sulfonyl chloride, 161.

Methyl a-D-mannopyranoside was treated in succession with p-toluene-sulfonyl chloride, carbonyl chloride, and benzoyl chloride, and, without isolating the intermediates, there was obtained in 37% yield methyl 4-0-l enzoyl-2,3-O-carbony 1-6-0-(p-tolylsulfonyl ) -D-mannoside. The tos-yloxyl group of the latter was replaced by iodine, and hydrogenation of the 6-iodo derivative in the presence of a nickel boride catalyst gave methyl 4-0-benzoyl-2,3-0-carbonyl-6-deoxy- -D-mannoside. Treatment of the latter with hydrogen bromide in acetic acid gave crystalline 4-0-benzoyl-2,3-0-carbonyl-6-deoxy-a-D-mannosyl bromide (8) (16). The... 

The method is of general applicability7 for the synthesis of olefins. Other sulfonyl chlorides, RCH2SO2CI, have been used where R = H, C2H5, CeHs, and C6H5CH2 other diazoalkanes that have been used are diazoethane and l-diazo-2-methyl-propane. In all cases the olefins form without double-bond migration. 

This reactivity enables t/tro-substitution to be carried out at a specific position in the ring, irrespective of the presence of other contra-directing groups, and it allows the reaction to be carried out under mild conditions, or with weak electrophiles such as diazonium ions.2 Recent additions to the extensive list of electrophiles that have been used are toluene />-sulfonylisocyanate and ethoxycarbonyl isocyanate (Equation (53)),176 sulfonyl chloride,177 arene178 and silane sulfonyl chlorides,179 and dichloromethyl methyl ether (Equation (54)).1... 

The next series of four preparations describe the synthesis and/or use of recently introduced reagents for functional group protection. The first in this series describes the preparation of 2-TRIMETHYLSILYLETHANE-SULFONYL CHLORIDE (SEC-C1), an effective reagent for protection of primary and secondary amines as the corresponding sulfonamide. The SES-protected amines are stable intermediates which can be readily purified treatment with CsF in DMF or TBAF in acetonitrile liberates the parent amine.
