A further 12 ml (15 g, 0.10 mole) of benzenesulfenyl chloride and 0.05 g of iron powder were added. After four days the carbon tetrachloride was removed by distillation. The residue was distilled at reduced pressure to give 30 g (22%) of 2-(m-chlorophenyl)-5-(phenylthio)thiophene, b.p. 200°-205° C. (0.15 mm).
