Reaction Steps

A quantity of 762 g (4.536 mol) of 2-phenylthioacetic acid is stirred at room temperature for 3 hours with thionyl chloride (375 ml, 5.14 mol), then stirred at 40° C. for 3 hours. Rotary evaporation followed by bulb-to-bulb distillation gives 777 g (4.166 mol, 92%) of 2-phenylthioacetyl chloride.
