Participants

Reaction Steps

3.58 g of 2-acetylthio-3-[4-(4-methylphenoxy)benzoyl]-propionic acid were dissolved in 50 ml of ethanol, then a solution of 0.04 g of sodium hydroxide in 10 ml of ethanol was added dropwise, under ice-cooling and with stirring. The mixture was stirred at the same temperature for a further one hour. 20 ml of diethyl ether were added to the reaction mixture and the precipitate was collected by filtration, then washed with diethyl ether, to give 3.04 g of sodium 2-acetylthio-3-[4-(4-methylphenoxy)benzoyl]propionate.
