Participants

Reaction Steps

Heat at reflux for 6 hours a solution of 0.025 mol (6.3 g) of ethyl N-benzoylvalinate obtained in Step B and 5.6 g of phosphorus pentasulphide in 120 ml of pyridine, and evaporate to dryness. Take up the residue in water and ethyl acetate. Wash the organic phase with a 2N hydrochloric acid solution, dry, filter and evaporate to dryness. The ethyl N-thiobenzoylvalinate obtained is purified by chromatography on a column of silica (eluant:ethyl acetate/hexane:25/75).
