Reaction Steps

To a solution containing 23.2 g of 3-benzylmercapto-4-carboxy benzaldehyde in 250 ml of methylene chloride is added 15 ml of thionyl chloride and 0.5 ml of dimethylformamide. The reaction mixture is refluxed for 6-7 hours, then evaporated to dryness. Crystallization from 100 ml of ether yielded 27.0 g of 3-benzylmercapto-4-chlorocarbonyl benzaldehyde (a).
