Summary.

The preparation of N-acylsulfonamides is described using primary amines, arylsulfonyl chlorides and acyl chlorides. Reaction of primary aryl amines with arylsulfonyl chlorides in the presence of NaHCO3 produced N-arylsulfonamides, which reacted in situ with benzoyl chloride furnishing the corresponding N-benzoyl-N-arylsulfonamides in 72–96% yields. Accordingly, 4-nitrobenzoyl chloride and 3,5-dinitrobenzoyl chloride were used as acylating agents. All the reactions were carried out under solvent-free conditions at room temperature and the products were isolated after simple work-up in high yields and purity.
