The reaction mixture was diluted with water and steam distilled to remove unchanged thiol. The hot aqueous layer was decanted from the oily product, which was recrystallised from 60°-80° petrleum ether to give 3-phenyl-3-(phenylthio)propionic acid (36.7 g) m.pt. 85°-90°. A sample recrystallised again from 60°-80° petroleum ether had m.pt. 88°-90°.
