Procedure

A stirred solution of 2.46 g (14.1 mmoles) of 4-methylthio-2-thiophenecarboxylic acid (prepared as described in Example 28 below) in 150 ml dichloromethane and 10 ml methanol was cooled to icebath temperature. A 120 ml dichloromethane solution of 2.82 g (13.9 mmoles) of m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid (technical grade, 80-85%) was slowly added to the cooled reaction solution. After 1 hour the reaction was essentially complete with a colorless precipitate forming. The precipitate was filtered and dried to give 1.18 g (6.20 mmoles) of desired compound as a colorless solid, m.p. 188°-190° C. The concentrated mother liquor was chromatographed (silica gel) to give an additional 0.83 g (4.36 mmoles) of desired 4-methylsulfinyl-2-thiophenecarboxylic acid, total yield 75% (10.56 mmoles).
