1,1′-[Methylenebis(thio)]bis[benzene] Use and Manufacturing

Methods of Manufacturing

Dissolve thiophenol in absolute ethanol, add sodium hydroxide to make sodium thiophenolate ethanol solution, and add diiodomethane to control the temperature not to exceed 80°C. After the addition is complete, heat to reflux for 1 hour. Evaporate most of the ethanol, add water and ether to dissolve the layers. The ether layer is alkali washed, washed with water, and dried. The ether is evaporated to obtain the crude product, which is recrystallized with petroleum ether to obtain the finished product bis(phenylthio)methane with a yield of 80 %.

Uses

Organic synthesis intermediate.
