Participants

Reaction Steps

To a mixture of 4-mercaptophenol (3.78 g), potassium carbonate (8.2 g) and N,N-dimethylformamide (40 ml) was added dropwise under ice cooling a solution of N-(2-bromoethyl)phthalimide (7.62 g) in N,N-dimethylformamide (50 ml). The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 16 hours and poured into 3% hydrochloric acid (220 ml), and the resulting crystals were collected by filtration and dried to give N-[2-(4-hydroxyphenylthio)ethyl]phthalimide (9.1 g).
