Procedure
Three grams (14.1 mmol) of 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-methylbutanoic acid is dissolved in approximately 50 ml of dry dimethylformamide, after which 1.43 g (14.1 mmol) of triethylamine is added in one portion. The solution is cooled to 0° and 1.59 g (14.1 mmol) of ethyl chloroformate is slowly added over 30 seconds. After 0.5 hour 3.15 g (28.2 mmol) of sodium hydrosulfide is added. The mixture is stirred overnight at room temperature. The reaction mixture is then poured into 150 ml of water and adjusted to pH 3 with 5% aqueous sulfuric acid. Extraction with 50 ml methylene chloride (3×) is followed by drying and stripping. Dimethylforamide is still present, so the product is taken up in ether and washed with 200 ml of water, dried and stripped to yield 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-methylbutanethioic S-acid.
