Procedure
Over a period of 2.5 h, 59.6 g (0.326 mol) of 2,3-difluoro-5-trifluoromethylpyridine were added at 148-156° C. to 37.7 g (0.338 mol) of 98.7% pure thiophenol and 2.1 mg (0.01 mol %) of copper powder, and the mixture was stirred at 156-164° C. for 2 hours. After cooling, the residue was taken up in methylene chloride, washed with 0.5 N of aqueous sodium hydroxide solution and with water, dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. 88.9 g (100% of theory) of the title compound of n24/D=1.5539 were obtained.
