Chloride → 1-(Chlorosulfanyl)dodecane

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of dodecane thiol (1.00 mL, 4.17 mmol, Aldrich) in 20 mL CHCl3 was added suliryl chloride (0.74 mL, 9.19 mmol, Aldrich), and the regulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 18 h. Removal of solvent (aspirator), afforded dodecansulfenyl chloride that was determined to be sufficiently pure by 1H NMR.
