Triphenylsulfonium chloride → HCID 23435187, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

The sodium 4-(4′-methylphenylsulfonyloxy)naphthalene-1-sulfonate crude product obtained in Synthesis Example 2, 48 g, was added to one half of the aqueous triphenylsulfonium chloride solution obtained in Synthesis Example 4 and 200 g of dichloromethane, which was stirred for one hour at room temperature. The organic layer was separated, washed with 200 g of water, and concentrated in vacuum. The residue, 60 g, was purified by recrystallization from diethyl ether, obtaining the end product, triphenylsulfonium 4-(4′-methylphenylsulfonyloxy)naphthalene-1-sulfonate as crystals in an amount of 49 g (yield 76%).
