Procedure

A stream of CH3SH gas was bubbled through a solution of 162 mg (3 mmoles) of sodium methoxide in 5 ml of methanol for 10 min. with cooling in an ice bath. The solution was allowed to warm to room temperature and 332 mg (1 mmole) of Z-8-bromo-2-(2,2-dimethylcyclopropanecarboxamido)-2-octenoic acid was added. The solution was heated under reflux for 30 min. in a N2 atmosphere. Most of the methanol was evaporated under reduced pressure, the residue was dissolved in 10 ml of water and acidified with 2.5 N HCl. The precipitated oil was extracted with ether (3×). The ether extracts were washed with water, saturated brine and dried over MgSO4. Removal of the ether under reduced pressure gave a colorless oil that crystallized upon standing. It was recrystallized from ether-hexane to give 178 mg of Z-2-(2,2-dimethylcyclopropanecarboxamido)-8-methylthio-2-octenoic acid, m.p. 82°-84° C. Homogeneous by TLC (toluene-acetic acid, 4:1). The NMR spectrum was in accord with the desired structure.
