Reaction Steps

The procedure is as in Example 2 for the preparation of ethyl phenylthioacetate, starting with ethyl bromoacetate (16.7 g), a 2M ethanolic solution of sodium ethylate (50 cc) and allylmercaptan (7.7 cc). After purification by chromatography on a silica column with cyclohexane as eluent, ethyl (allylthio)acetate (3.1 g) is obtained, and is used in the crude state in the subsequent phases.
