Carbon Tetrachloride → HCID 13044809, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 42 g (0.286 mole) of phenyl vinyl sulfone in 200 ml of carbon tetrachloride and 100 ml of methylene chloride was treated with 45 g (0.252 mole) of p-chlorobenzenesulfenyl chloride. The reaction mixture was allowed to stand seven days at 23° C. Filtration through a thin layer of clay removed a small amount of flocculent solid. Evaporation of the filtrate at reduced pressure gave 51.5 g (60%) of crude product, m.p. 60°. Recrystallization from a mixture of 100 ml of ethyl acetate and 30 ml of pentane gave pure product m.p. 79°-81°.
