A solution of 5-(4-fluoro-phenyl)-thiomorpholin-3-one (2.0 g, 9.5 mmol) in THF (25 mL) was slowly added, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 90 minutes. The mixture was diluted with 10% aqueous Na3PO4 solution (40 mL), and stirred at room temperature for five minutes. The mixture was extracted with a 1:4 mixture of ethyl acetate and diethyl ether, and the organic phase was separated, dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. Elution of the residue through silica (15-20% ethyl acetate/hexanes) gave 1.36 g of 5-(4-fluoro-phenyl)-thiomorpholine-3-thione, MP=107-108° C.
