Rapid and Regiospecific Phenylthiolation of Some Organic Acids Catalyzed by AlCl3 in the Presence of Excess Anhydrous ZnCl2

Phenylthiolation of some carboxylic acids catalyzed by AlCl 3 in the presence of excess dehydrating agent (ZnCl 2 ) has been achieved. Moreover, regiospecificity was tested of some dioic acids and found to be specific at the aliphatic part of carboxylic functionality.
