1-Chloro-2-nitrobenzene → 2-Nitro-4'-chloro diphenyl sulfide

Participants

Reaction Steps

This compound was synthesized by the model procedure from the following compounds: 4-Chlorothiophenol (15.0 g, 0.10 mol), Na2CO3 (15.50 g, 0.15 mol), and 2-chloro-nitrobenzene (16.3 g, 0.10 mol). The crude product, mp 91°-93° C., was recrystallized from alcohol to afford 25.0 g (91%) of yellow crystals, mp 94°-95° C. (lit. mp 94° C.). IR(KBr) 3050 (C--H), 1512 and 1336 cm-1 (NO2); 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ 8.2 (m, 1 H) and 7.45 (m, 7 H).
