Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 4.8 g. of 1-[p-(methylthio)phenyl]-1H-tetrazole in 80 ml. of methylene chloride was treated with 2.2 ml. of sulfuryl chloride in 10 ml. of methylene chloride. The solution was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour, evaporated to dryness on a steam bath, washed with hexane and recrystallized from methylene chloride to give white crystals, m.p. 115°-117° C. This product was also obtained by a similar reaction of 0.5 g. of 1-[p-(methylsulfinyl)phenyl]-1H-tetrazole and 0.18 ml. of thionyl chloride in methylene chloride.
