A solution of ethyl formyl β chloracetate in 240 ml of benzene was added to a suspension of 78 g of thiobenzamide in 200 ml of benzene and the mixture was refluxed for 3 hours 30 minutes while eliminating the water formed. The reaction medium was cooled and 320 ml of a 20% solution of potassium carbonate and 220 ml of water were added slowly.
