General Synthetic Procedure for Target Compounds II-1−II-
8 (Scheme 2). Synthesis of 4-Chlorophenyl 4-Nitrobenzenesulfo-
nate (II-1a). 4-Nitrobenzene-1-sulfonyl chloride (1.33 g, 6.0 mmol)
and 4-chlorophenol (0.73 g, 6.0 mmol) were dissolved in dichloro-
methane (30 mL). Then, triethylamine (0.73 g, 7.2 mmol) and N,
N-dimethylpyridin-4-amine (DMAP, 0.07 g) in dichloromethane
(10 mL) were added dropwise at room temperature. The mixture
was stirred for 10 h and then successively washed with 5% aqueous
HCl solution and saturated salt solution. The organic layer was dried
over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and filtered, and the filtrate was
concentrated under reduced pressure to give crude product. The
product was purified by recrystallization from ethyl acetate and
petroleum ether (60−90 °C) to give compound II-1a (1.57 g, 83.5%)
as a yellow solid. mp = 123−125 °C. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ:
8.39 (d, J = 8.5 Hz, 2H, Ar−H), 8.04 (d, J = 8.5 Hz, 2H, Ar−H), 7.30

Synthesis of 4-Chlorophenyl 4-Aminobenzenesulfonate (II-1b).
Compound II-1a (1.57 g, 5.0 mmol) was dissolved in ethyl acetate
(40 mL), and 10% Pd/C (0.20 g, 53% moisture) was added. Then,
hydrogen was bubbled at room temperature through the reaction for 8
h. Then, the mixture was filtered, and the filtrate was concentrated
under reduced pressure to give compound II-1b as a white solid
without further purification in 95.8% yield. 1H NMR (400 MHz,
