Next, t-butyl nitrite (285 μL, 2.4 mmol) was added dropwise by syringe. The reaction was stirred at room temperature for two hours and then poured into H2O (15 mL). The mixture was extracted with EtOAc (50 mL), washed with brine (15 mL), dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated. Purification by flash chromatography with 0% to 50% EtOAc/hexanes afforded [3-(methylthio)-5-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-methanol. The [3-(methylthio)-5-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]methanol was contaminated with minor impurities that were removed after the next step. Rf=0.53 (50% EtOAc/hexanes). 1H NMR (CDCl3, 500 MHz) δ 7.63 (s, 1H), 7.40 (s, 1H), 7.35 (s, 1H), 4.71 (s, 2H), 2.51 (s, 3H).
