Reaction Steps

To a stirred mixture of 51.4 g (0.733 mole) of methacrolein and 2 g (0.018 mole) of triethylamine at 0-5° C. is added 80.8 g (0.733 mole) of benzenethiol slowly. The addition rate is such that the temperature was under 10° C. The reaction mixture is stirred at 0-5° C. for one hour. The mixture is placed on a rotary evaporator to remove triethylamine.
