Procedure
4-(1,1-dioxo-thiomorpholin-4-yl)phenol (4.1 g, 18 mmol), 2-ethylhexyl glycidyl ether (4.4 g, 23,6 mmol) and ethyltriphenylphosphonium bromide (0.37 g) are heated under nitrogen for 5 h at 145° C. and the crude product is chromatographed over silica gel (hexane/ethylacetate 1:1) to afford a colourless liquid 5.2 g (70%).
