Reaction Steps

A mixture of 1.0 g (0.005 mol) of 4-methylsaccharin, 0.33 g (0.001 mol) of TBAB and 1.2 g (0.0075 mol) of chloromethyl phenyl sulfide in 25 ml of toluene was heated under reflux for about sixteen hours and then cooled, diluted with ethyl acetate and the solution washed with aqueous bicarbonate and water. The organic layer was dried and taken to dryness to give 0.74 g of 2-phenylthiomethyl-4-methylsaccharin.
