It was established that the reaction of 2-phenyl-1,3-oxathiolane (I) with dichlorocarbene, generated from chloroform in 50% aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide with the use of triethylbenzylammonium chloride as phase-transfer catalyst, leads to the formation of dichloromethyl thiobenzoate (II) and ethylene with yields of 24 and 38% respectively and 60% conversion in the substrate (I). The reaction was conducted at 35-40/sup 0/C for 24 h with the following amounts of the reagents; 0.5 mole of the substrate (I); 5 moles of chloroform; 600 mol of 50% aqueous sodium hydroxide solution; 1 g of triethylbenzylammonium chloride. Compound (II) was isolated by column liquid chromatography on aluminum oxide (40-250 ..mu..) with a 1:5 mixture of diethyl ether and hexane as eluant. The product was identified by means of the IR, PMR, and /sup 13/C NMR spectra.
