m-Chloroperbenzoic acid → HCID 20034837, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

In 20 ml of dichloromethane is dissolved 1.52 g of 3-methoxy-4-octadecyloxybutyl 3-hydroxypropyl sulfide, to which a solution of 0.61 g of m-chloroperbenzoic acid in 8 ml of dichloromethane is added dropwise with stirring under ice cooling. Thereafter, the mixture is stirred at room temperature for 30 minutes to complete the reaction. The reaction mixture is then washed with an aqueous sodium bisulfite solution, an aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution and then water and dried. The solvent is distilled off under reduced pressure and the residue is purified by silica gel column chromatography to obtain 1.46 g of the captioned compound.
