Amines reactions with sulfonyl chlorides

The sulfonyl chloride group is the cure site for CSM and determines the rate and state of cure along with the compound recipe. It is less stable than the Cl groups and therefore often determines the ceiling temperature for processing. The optimum level of sulfonyl chloride to provide a balance of cured properties and processibiUty is about 2 mol % or 1—1.5 wt % sulfur at 35% Cl. It also undergoes normal acid chloride reactions with amines, alcohols, etc, to make useful derivatives (17). 

A primary or a secondary amine can be protected by reaction with phenacyl-sulfonyl chloride (PhC0CH2S02Cl) to give a sulfonamide RNHS02CH2C0Ph or R2NS02CH2C0Ph.1741 The protecting group can be removed when desired with zinc and acetic acid. Sulfonyl chlorides react with azide ion to give sulfonyl azides RSO-.N3.1742 OS IV, 34, 943 V, 39, 179, 1055 VI, 78, 652 VII, 501 69, 158. See also OS VI, 788. 

B sulfonyl chloride is an amine-reactive reagent made by converting the 5-sulfonate group over to the reactive sulfonyl halide. Reaction with proteins and other amine-containing molecules results in the formation of sulfonamide bonds (Fig. 214). Lis-samine is a trademark erf Imperial Chemical Industries. 

One approach to this problem is to start with the alkyl terminated surfaces and carry out chemical transformations of the methyl end group. Chidsey and co-workers employed this approach by forming sulfonyl chloride terminal groups via a photoinitiated free radical reaction of CI2 and SO2 with the original methyl-terminated monolayer [45]. These were then converted to sulfonamides by reaction with amines. Schematically this two-step reaction scheme can be written as ... 

Some of these transformations were accompanied by additional reactions, e.g. formylation of the aromatic or heteroaromatic - nucleus or CH-acidic methyl groups further dehydration of amides to nitriles was observed. Adducts from amides and PCI3, sulfonyl halides or SO2CI2/SCXZI2 from which amidines can be obtained by reaction with amine derivatives (compare Section 2.7.2.5 and refs. 5 and 14) have not found wide application for this purpose. An interesting reaction is the preparation of the amidine (294 equation 158) from 7V-pentafluorophenylformamide. By thermal decomposition of the adducts from secondary amides and 7V,iV-dialkylcarbamoyl chlorides amidinium salts were synthesized from which the amidines (295 equation 159) were set free by treatment with bases. " ... 

Hanefeld and coworkers179 have recently noted that the reaction of sulfenes generated in situ from sulfonyl chlorides and tertiary amines, with vicinal tricarbonyl compounds such as indan-l,2,3-trione, alloxane, diethyl mesoxalate and 1-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline-2,3,4-trione, afford products derived mainly from ring opening of /i-sultones (equation 139). 

Sulfonyl chlorides are highly reactive derivatives of sulfonic acid and possess similar properties and reactivity to acid chlorides of carbo Q lates. The reaction with nucleophiles such as amines requires alkaline conditions (pH 9-10) and proceeds through the formation of an unstable pentavalent transition state (Scheme 1.10). Hydrolysis is a major competing reaction in water therefore the reaction with amines proceeds with better yield when done in organic solvents. Sulfonyl chlorides have played an important role in bioconjugation chemistry, since sulfonic acids can be easily converted into sulfonyl chlorides using thionyl chloride or phosphorus pentachloride in non-aqueous conditions. ... 

The chlorsulfuron sulfonamide XI can be prepared by the Meerwein route. However, Josey (5) discovered a more practical route as shown in Equations 8 and 9. This route involves the reaction of i-dichlorobenzene with potassium propyl mercaptide to yield the thioether. The thioether is converted to the sulfonamide by chlorination in the presence of water to the sulfonyl chloride followed by amination to the sulfonamide. 

In the nucleophilic substitution reactions of alkylsulfonyl chlorides and ring-substituted benzylsulfonyl chlorides, the operation of two competing reaction pathways has been established (a) E-A (sulfene) mechanism and (b) direct nucleophilic substitution at sulfur (general base catalysis). The relative significance of these competing mechanisms depends on the nature of the substrate and the precise reaction conditions. In the hydrolysis of cyclopropane-sulfonyl chloride 11 with tertiary amines in organic media, the sulfene 12 appears to be the crucial intermediate in the formation of cyclopropanesulfonic acid 13 (Equation 12). ... 

On the other hand, reaction of the sulfonyl chloride 397 with excess morpholine, pyrrolidine and piperidine (three equivalents) afforded a mixture of the sulfonamides 400 and 401. The succinimidosulfonamide 401 was formed by simultaneous nucleophilic substitution at sulfur and Michael addition of the amine to the activated alkenic double bond. The pure maleimidosulfonamide 400 could be prepared by column chromatography of the mixture. The reaction of N- p-chlorosulfonylphenyl) maleimide 397 with excess dimethylamine or diethylamine in methanol as solvent resulted in the formation of ring-opened products. For instance, in the reaction with diethylamine, the methyl ester 402 was formed by base-catalysed nucleophilic ring-opening by the solvent (methanol) this ring... 

N -Heterocyclic Sulfanilamides. The parent sulfanilamide is manufactured by the reaction of A/-acetylsulfanilyl chloride with excess concentrated aqueous ammonia, and hydrolysis of the product. Most heterocycHc amines are less reactive, and the condensation with the sulfonyl chloride is usually done in anhydrous media in the presence of an acid-binding agent. Use of anhydrous conditions avoids hydrolytic destmction of the sulfonyl chloride. The solvent and acid-binding functions are commonly filled by pyridine, or by mixtures of pyridine and acetone. Tertiary amines, such as triethylamine, may be substituted for pyridine. The majority of A/ -heterocycHc sulfanilamides are made by simple condensation with A/-acetylsulfanilyl chloride and hydrolysis. 

A variation of this procedure is used for sulfisomidine because of the different character of the amino group in the 4-position of a pyrimidine ring. Two moles of the sulfonyl chloride are condensed with one mole of 4-amino-2,6-dimethy1pyrimidine in the presence of triethylamine. The resulting bis(acetylsulfanilyl) derivative is readily hydrolyzed to the product. The formation of the bis(acetylsulfanilyl) derivative has also been employed for other heterocycHc amines, eg, for synthesis of sulfathiazole and sulfamoxole (44), but the 1 1 reaction is probably preferable. 

General Reaction Chemistry of Sulfonic Acids. Sulfonic acids may be used to produce sulfonic acid esters, which are derived from epoxides, olefins, alkynes, aHenes, and ketenes, as shown in Figure 1 (10). Sulfonic acids may be converted to sulfonamides via reaction with an amine in the presence of phosphoms oxychloride [10025-87-3] POCl (H)- Because sulfonic acids are generally not converted directiy to sulfonamides, the reaction most likely involves a sulfonyl chloride intermediate. Phosphoms pentachlotide [10026-13-8] and phosphoms pentabromide [7789-69-7] can be used to convert sulfonic acids to the corresponding sulfonyl haUdes (12,13). The conversion may also be accompHshed by continuous electrolysis of thiols or disulfides in the presence of aqueous HCl [7647-01-0] (14) or by direct sulfonation with chlorosulfuric acid. Sulfonyl fluorides are typically prepared by direct sulfonation with fluorosulfutic acid [7789-21-17, or by reaction of the sulfonic acid or sulfonate with fluorosulfutic acid. Halogenation of sulfonic acids, which avoids production of a sulfonyl haUde, can be achieved under oxidative halogenation conditions (15). 

Aliphatic sulfonyl chlorides that have a-hydrogen substituents, react with simple tertiary amines, such as trimethylamine, to generate sulfenes or perhaps their amine adducts 446). These species are suggested by the incorporation of one (but not more) deuterium atoms on reaction of sulfonyl chlorides with deuterated alcohols and triethylamine (447-450). A 2 1 adduct of sulfene and trimethylamine with proposed sulfonyl-sulfene structure could be isolated (451). 

The drugs are available by one of two fairly straightforward routes. Chlorosulfonation of acetanilide gives the corresponding sulfonyl chloride (88) reaction with the appropriate amine gives the intermediate, 89. Hydrolysis in either acid or base leads to the sulfanilamide (90). 

This sequence is equally applicable to keto esters. Thus, condensation of guanidine with ethyl acetoacetate gives the pyrimidone, 134. Elaboration as above gives the pyrimidine, IJ5 acylation with the sulfonyl chloride (88) followed by hydrolysis yields sulfamerazine (107). Reaction of guanidine with beta dicarbonyl compounds gives the pyrimidine directly. Condensation of the base with acetonyl acetone affords the starting amine for sulfadimidine (108). ... 

Inclusion of a para acetyl group requires a somewhat different approach to the preparation of these compounds. Reaction of the diazonium salt from p-aminoacetophenone with sulfur dioxide affords the sulfonyl chloride, 203 this is then converted to the sulfonamide, 204, Elaboration via the carbamate with cyclohexyl-amine affords acetohexamide (205). ... 

The most important group of derivatives for the amino function (Fig. 7-4) is the carbamate group, which can be formed by reactions with acids, acid chlorides or acid anhydrides. A series of chlorides as 2-chloroisovalerylchloride [1], chrysanthe-moylchloride [2] and especially chloride compounds of terpene derivatives (cam-phanic acid chloride [3], camphor-10-sulfonyl chloride [4]) are used. The a-methoxy-a-trifluoromethylphenylacetic acid or the corresponding acid chloride introduced by Mosher in the 1970s are very useful reagents for the derivatization of amines and alcohols [5]. 

The three steps 32-34 have been suggested77 to be equilibria, and the overall equilibrium must lie far to the left because no adduct 23 is found in the reaction mixture when the reaction of sulfonyl chloride with olefin is carried out in the absence of a tertiary amine. A second possible mechanism involving oxidative addition of the arenesulfonyl halide to form a ruthenium(IV) complex and subsequent reductive elimination of the ruthenium complex hydrochloride, [HRulvCl], was considered to be much less likely. 

The treatment of sulfonyl chlorides with ammonia or amines is the usual way of preparing sulfonamides. Primary amines give N-alkyl sulfonamides, and secondary amines give N,N-dialkyl sulfonamides. The reaction is the basis of the Hinsberg test for distinguishing between primary, secondary, and tertiary amines. N-Alkyl sulfonamides, having an acidic hydrogen, are soluble in alkali, while N,N-dialkyl sulfon-...
