Reaction Steps

To a suspension of 1.8 g of 2-benzylthio-4-chloro-nitrobenzene in 100 ml ethanol was added 2 g powdered iron and 20 mL of 0.33N NH4Cl. The mixture was heated at 70° C. for 6 hr. The mixture was cooled and filtered through a pad of Celite. The filtrate was condensed and purified by flash chromatography (hexane/ethyl acetate 4:1 as eluent) to yield 1.25 g of an oil. LC-MS showed a single peak with the expected (M+H+ of 236.
