10. Typical procedure: The sulfonyl chloride (1 mmol) is dissolved
in 15 ml acetonitrile and then silylamine (1 mmol) is slowly
added. The reaction mixture is refluxed for 1 hour and
concentrated with rotary evaporator. If necessary, the product may
be further purified by silica gel chromatography (hexane: ethyl
acetate).
