Abstract Interaction of ortho-tert-butylphenol with sulfur monochloride in dimethylformamide leads to an increase in the fraction of phenol di-and polysulfides in the product. Liquid chromato-mass-spectrometry was used to determine the composition of the main groups of compounds contained in the mixture. A number of its components was isolated and produced by counter synthesis.
