Reaction Steps

To a 300 ml three neck flask provided with a stirrer, thermometer, cooling tube, and dropping funnel were added 11.1 g (56.7 mmol) of the 4-propyldithiobenzoic acid obtained by the procedures described above and 60 ml of diethyl ether, and 13.5 g (113.4 mmol) of thionyl chloride was added dropwise thereto while being stirred at room temperature in 5 minutes, and further heated to reflux for 8 hours. From the reaction mixture, diethyl ether was distilled off, and unreacted thionyl chloride was distilled off under a reduced pressure to obtain 11.5 g of dark purplish red oily 4-propylthiobenzoic acid chloride.
