1-bromo-4-pentylsulfanylbenzene

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: The Grignard reagent from the product of Step 2.1 (15 g) was prepared using magnesium in tetrehydrofuran (60 ml). Iodine (16.2 g) was added over 10 min and the mixture was stirred for 16 hrs. Water was added and then 10% sodium metabisulphite (100 ml). The product was extracted into petroleum ether and distilled. Yield 10.5 g. The product was extracted into petroleum ether distilled

Conditions: temp:90.01; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: A mixture of 4-bromothiophenol (30 g), pentyl bromide (26.4 g), sodium hydroxide (6-67 g) and water (30 ml) was heated at 90° C. and stirred for 48 hrs. The mixture was then poured into water, extracted with petroleum spirit, dried and distilled (bp 96° C. at 0.11 mmHG). Yield 27.3 g. extracted with petroleum spirit dried distilled (bp 96° C. at 0.11 mmHG)
