Reaction Steps

A mixture of 3'-chloro-4'-nitroacetophenone (1.5 g), 4-chlorothiophenol (1.63 g) and potassium carbonate (1.56 g) in toluene (15 ml) was stirred at 70° C. for 5 hours. Ethyl acetate and water were added, and the organic layer was separated, washed with water, dried and evaporated to dryness. The residue was washed with toluene to give yellow crystals of 3'-(4-chlorophenylthio)-4'-nitroacetophenone (1.9 g).
