Reaktionsschritte

A suspension of 3′-mercaptoacetophenone (Reference compound No. 4-1, 1.5 g, 9.9 mmol), potassium carbonate (1.6 g, 12 mmol) and iodomethane (740 μL, 12 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide was stirred at 50° C. for 75 minutes. Water (50 mL) was added to the reaction mixture, extracted with a mixed solvent (50 mL) which consists of hexane and ethyl acetate (3:1). The organic layer was washed with brine (50 mL), dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure to give the title reference compound (1.3 g) as a brown oil (Yield 77%).
