Participants

Reaction Steps

To a suspension prepared by suspending 0.95 g (39 mmol) of magnesium in 200 ml of THF was added dropwise a solution prepared by dissolving 9.28 g (30 mmol) of 4-(trans-4-n-pentylcyclohexyl)bromobenzene in 80 ml of THF, at room temperature while being stirred in 1 hour, and then heated to reflux for 2 hours to prepare a Grignard reagent. To this solution was added dropwise 5.7 g (75 mmol) of carbon disulfide at room temperature in 30 min and stirred as it was overnight. To this reaction solution was added 150 ml of 1M hydrochloric acid to terminate the reaction and extracted with 350 ml of toluene. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, the solvent was distilled off under a reduced pressure, and the residue was recrystallized from heptane to obtain 4.74 g of 4-(trans-4-n-pentylcyclohexyl)phenyldithiocarboxylic acid (yield 51.5%).
