Abstract

Filippo Maiolo, Lorenzo Testaferri,* Marcello Tiecco,* and Marco Tingoli ... Istituto di Chimica Organica, Facoltd di Farmacia, Universitd di Perugia, 06100 Perugia, Italy Received December 12, 1980 ... A simple procedure is described which allows one to prepare polymercaptobenzenes starting from chlorobenzenes. The reactions of all the possible chlorobenzenes with MezCHSNa in HMPA give the corresponding (iso- propy1thio)benzenes which can be cleaved by ...
