Reaction Steps

Isobutanoyl chloride (528 μL, 5.0 mmol) in 15 mL toluene was added to a solution of triethylamine (0.70 mL, 5.0 mmol) and thiophenol (0.51 mL, 5.0 mmol) in 10 mL toluene. Reaction monitoring was accomplished by TLC: iso-hexane/ethyl acetate 25:1; Rf=0.47. Workup yielded 653 mg (72%) S-phenyl isobutanethioate 6 as pale yellow oil.
