Participants

Reaction Steps

One hundred milligrams of the alcohol obtained above was dissolved in 10 ml of chloroform, and 0.3 ml of thionyl chloride was added. The mixture was reacted at room temperature for 2 hours. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure, and the residue was dissolved in 20 ml of water and 20 ml of ethyl ether. The ether layer was separated, and the solvent was evaporated. The residue was purified by medium-pressure liquid chromatography column: Lobar column, size A, Lichroprep Si 60F (a product of E. Merck Co.); eluting solvent: hexane] to give 55 mg (yield 51%) of 3-benzylthiobenzyl chloride as a colorless oil.
