Procedure
A solution of (R)-2-bromo-3-phenylpentanoic acid in dimethylformamide is added to a solution of thioacetic acid (1.5 equivalents) and sodium hydride (2.5 equivalents) in anhydrous dimethylformamide. The mixture is stirred for 3 hours at a temperature close to 20° C. After customary treatment, (S)-2-acetylthio-3-phenylpentanoic acid is obtained with a yield of 78% in the form of a yellow oil having the following characteristics: Rf =0.44 [methylene chloride/methanol (9:1 by volume)].
