Abstract

Abstract Friedel-Crafts α-(acyl) methylthiomethylations of aromatic compounds with α- ethoxycarbonyl,-acetyl,-benzoyl, and-cyano-α-(methylthio) methyl chlorides are described. The resulted products are easily converted to acylmethylated aromatics such as phenylacetate and phenylacetone by reductive desulfurization.
