Versuchsvorschrift

4-Methylthiophenol (3.41 g, 27.5 mmol), potassium carbonate (3.80 g, 27.5 mmol) and ditosylated dicyanohydroquinone (i.e. product A) (5.00 g, 10.7 mmol) in DMF (40 mL) were reacted as described above. The mixture was isolated as described above to give a yellow solid. The solid was purified by flash column chromatography (gradient elution: 5%-10%-30% ethyl acetate:isohexane, finally dichloromethane) to give the title compound as a yellow solid (2.07 g, 52%). [Found: C, 69.9%; H, 4.4%; N, 7.3%; S, 16.9%; C22H16N2S2 requires C, 70.9%, H, 4.3%, N, 7.5%, S, 17.2%]; MS (EI+) 372 (M+, 100%), 357 (M-CH3, 5%), 123 (CH3C6H4S, 15), 91 (CH3C6H4, 15).
