Abstract

X= 4-C1, 4-Br, 3-Br, 3-CF3, 4-OCHB, 4-CH3, H, 2, 6-di-C, H,, 2, 6-di-CH, heating the appropriate aniline with readily available thioglycolic acid to produce the corresponding a- mercaptoacetanilide. Addition of 3 equiv of sulfuryl chloride to the a-mercaptoacetanilide yields the sulfenyl chloridLe. The reaction is general in that a variety of substituents on the aniline may be employed (Tables I and 11).
