Procedure
-
Silver(I) trifluoromethanethiolate (907 mg, 4.34 mmol), tetrabutylammonium iodide (4.81 g, 13.0 mmol) and 4-methoxybenzyl alcohol (200 mg, 1.45 mmol) were dissolved in toluene (15 mL) and stirred at 80 °C for 19 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and filtered through a plug of silica gel (eluted with ethyl acetate). The solvent was removed under reduced pressure and the residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (hexane) to give (4-methoxybenzyl)(trifluoromethyl)sulfane as a colourless oil (216 mg, 67% yield).
