Hydrochloric Acid → 4-Chloro-3-ethylthio-2-methylbenzoic acid

3.71 g (11.3 mmol) of cesium carbonate were added to 1.10 g (5.42 mmol) of 4-chloro-3-mercapto-2-methylbenzoic acid in 20 ml of acetonitrile. The reaction mixture was stirred at RT for 10 min, and 1.02 g (6.51 mmol) of iodoethane were then slowly added dropwise. The reaction mixture was then stirred at RT for 16 h. The solvent was then removed, and a mixture of 20 ml of methanol and 2 ml of 20% strength aqueous sodium hydroxide solution was then added to the reaction mixture. For the hydrolysis of the ethyl ester formed, the mixture was stirred at RT for 16 h and then freed from the solvents. The residue was taken up in water and acidified with diluted HCl, and the mixture was stirred at RT for 10 min and then filtered. The residue was washed with water and sucked dry. 1.15 g of clean product were isolated.
