7.2 g of ethanethiol and 35 g of 4-pentyl-4'heptyl-4'-hydroxybicyclohexane in 70 ml of glacial acetic acid are added dropwise to a mixture of 30 ml of glacial acetic acid, 11.1 g of acetic anhydride and 7 g of 72% aqueous perchloric acid solution at -20°. The mixture is stirred at room temperature for 24 hours, poured into 250 ml of saturated sodium chloride solution, extracted with petroleum ether and worked up in the customary manner. 4-Pentyl-4'-heptyl-4'-ethylthiobicyclohexane is obtained.
