Reaction Steps

By working in a way similar to that described in example 8 and by using 2-(4-chlorobenzyl)-propenoic acid (6.7 g; 0.034 moles), prepared as described in example 13, and thioacetic acid (3.64 ml; 0.051 moles), a crude was obtained which chromatographed on silica gel (eluent ligroin:ethyl acetate=1:1) afforded 3-acetylthio-2-(4-chlorobenzyl)-propionic acid (4.36 g; 47% yield) as oil.
