Procedure

The procedure is as in Example 2 for the preparation of ethyl (phenylthio)acetate starting with ethyl bromoacetate (16.7 g), a 2M ethanolic solution of sodium ethylate (50 cc) and benzylmercaptan (11.7 cc). Ethyl (benzylthio)acetate (19.4 g) is thereby obtained, and is used in the crude state in the subsequent phases.
