Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 2.00 g (8.69 mmol) of 1-(2-bromo-ethyl)-4-nitro-benzene in DMSO (10 mL) was treated with 1.99 g (17.4 mmol) of potassium thioacetate and stirred at RT for 5 h. The mixture was diluted with EtOAc (100 mL) and washed with water (6×60 mL). The organic layer was dried (MgSO4) and concentrated in vacuo to afford 1.48 g (76%) of the title compound as a brown oil: 1H-NMR (CD3OD; 400 MHz): δ 8.23-8.15 (m, 2H), 7.60-7.53 (m, 2H), 3.27-3.10 (m, 4H), 3.03-2.94 (m, 3H).
