Reaction Steps

Ethyl chloroformate (0.6 ml, 6.2 mmol) was added dropwise to an ice-cooled solution of 2-benzylthio-3-methoxy-N,N-dimethyl benzylamine (1.5 g, 5.2 mmol) in dry ether (40 ml). The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 h. The solvent was evaporated in vacuo, and the residual solid was extracted several times with hexane. The extracts were evaporated to leave the title compound as a solid (1.29 g, 89%), mp 54°-55C. (Found: C,64.67; H,5.50; Cl,12.99. C15H15ClOS requires C,64.62; H,5.42; Cl,12.72%).
