Reaction Steps

2-Nitrothiophenol, 2-bromopropane, potassium carbonate and acetone were refluxed for several hours. The solvent then was removed by rotary evaporation. The crude product was partitioned between methylene chloride and a 10% sodium carbonate solution. The organic phase was distilled to yield 2-isopropylmercaptonitrobenzene.
