Reaktionsschritte

Ethanethiol (43.9 g) was added with stirring to a suspension of aluminum chloride (62.74 g) in chloroform (500 mL) at 0° C. To the resulting solution was added a solution of 4-isopropyl-6-methoxysaccharin (20.0 g) in chloroform (550 mL) during 30 minutes. The resulting solution was warmed to and maintained at 60° C. for 3-4 hours, then poured into ice-water acidified with hydrochloric acid. The resulting solid was collected by filtration, washed with water and dried affording 4-isopropyl-6-hydroxysaccharin, 18.4 g., 97% yield.
