Hydrochloric Acid → 6-Propionyl-3-methyl thiochromane

Participants

Reaction Steps

To 0.13M of AlCl3, 0.12M of propionyl chloride in 150 ml of 1,2-dichloroethylene, 0.1M (16.4 gr.) de 3-methyl-thiochromane are dropwise added at a temperature of ±5° C. After agitating the mixture for 3 hours at room temperature, a mixture of ice and HCl is added and extraction is made with CHCl3. The organic phase is dried on MgSO4, filtered and evaporated. 17.3 gr. of 6-propionyl-3-methyl thiochromane are so obtained, the homogeneity of which is verified by TLC and the structure of which is verified by NMR spectrum.
