Another 0.4 g (0.001 mole) of phosphorus pentasulfide was added and heating continued for 2 hr. After cooling, the reaction mixture was diluted with 100 ml of toluene and filtered. The filtrate was washed with 3×50 ml of saturated sodium bicarbonate and 100 ml of water, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, charcoaled, filtered, and concentrated by rotary evaporation. The crude oil was crystallized from isopropyl ether/toluene to give 1.2 g (57%) of yellow crystals, m.p. 153°-155° C.
