Procedure

To a solution of thiophenol [425 mg (3.8 mmol)] in dimethylformamide (10 ml) was added, under ice-cooling, sodium hydride [167 mg (4.2 mmol, content:60%)]. To the reaction mixture was added, after stirring for 20 minutes, a solution of 5-acetoxy-2-bromomethyl-4,6,7-trimethyl-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran [1.2 g (3.8 mmol)] dimethylformamide (5 ml). The mixture was stirred for further 30 minutes. The reaction mixture was diluted with water, which was subjected to extraction with ethyl acetate. The extract solution was washed with water, dried and concentrated. The concentrate was crystallized from isopropylether-hexane to afford 5-acetoxy-4,6,7-trimethyl-2-phenylthiomethyl-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran (Compound 4) [1.2 g (yield : 91.3%)]. In a manner as above, compounds 2, 6, 8, 10, 12 and 18 were synthesized by employing the corresponding thio compounds (3-mercaptopropionic acid, 1-octanethiol, 2-mercaptopyridine, 4-fluorothiophenol, 2-naphthalene thiol and benzyl mercaptan). Incidentally, when 3-mercaptopropionic acid was employed as the starting compound, 2.2 equivalents of sodium hydride was used.
