Reaction Steps

185 g (2.0 mol) of epichlorohydrin, 30 g of water, 5 g of methanol and 1.5 g of 32% aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide were mixed together, and 35 g (1.0 mol) of hydrogen sulfide was blown into the mixture with stirring with the temperature of the solution being maintained at 5 to 15° C., thereby obtaining 210 g (0.96 mol, yield: 96%) of bis(3-chloro-2-hydroxypropyl)sulfide.
