Participants

Reaction Steps

12.8 ml of 30% hydrogen peroxide were added dropwise, while stirring, to a suspension of 16.3 gm (59.5 millimols) of ethyl-[2-(2'-fluoro-4-biphenylyl)-2-oxo-ethyl]-sulfide in 170 ml of glacial acetic acid at 15° C. A clear solution was obtained which was stirred for 1 hour at room temperature. The reaction product was precipitated with water and recrystallized from isopropanol. Yield: 11.6 gm (67% of theory); m.p. 91-93° C.
