Reaction Steps

3-(2,2,2-Trifluoroethylthio)benzoic acid methyl ester was prepared 3-mercaptobenzoic acid methyl ester and trifluoroethyl iodide by following Method C. The reaction was conducted at room temperature overnight. The crude residue was chromatographed in 10-20% EtOAc/hexanes to afford 3-(2,2,2-trifluoroethylthio)benzoic acid methyl ester (82% yield).
