Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-[4-(1-methylpropylthio)phenoxymethyl]-1,3-dioxolane (7.1 mmol) in 10 ml of methanol at 0° is added, dropwise over 5 min., sodium m-periodate (1.67 g, 7.8 mmol) in 13 ml of water. The mixture is stirred for 3 hours while warming to RT. The reaction mixture is poured into water and extracted with ether. The combined organic extracts are washed with saturated sodium thiosulfate, with water and with brine, dried and rotoevaporated to give 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-[4-(1-methylpropylsulfinyl)phenoxymethyl]-1,3-dioxolane.
