1-Hexadecanethiol → HCID 57254888, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

The procedure used was identical to that set forth in Example 4, except that 107 g of hexadecyl mercaptan (0.417 moles) was reacted with 29.64 g of pure pentaerythritol tetraallyl ether (0.1 moles). The crude product was recrystallized three times in 300 ml of hexane yielding 57 g of white solid having a melting point 55°-57° C. The elemental analysis found: C-73.4%, H-11.9%, S-10.0%, calculated for C88H164S4 (theoretical C-73.12%, H-12.4%, S-9.64% and O-4.81%).
