1,3-Diaryl-3-thioglycolic acid-1-propanones 3a-k have been synthesized by the reaction of either erythro-2,3-dibromo-1,3-diaryl-1-propanones 1a-k or their corresponding trans-chalcones 2a-k with disodio-thioglycolate in absolute ethanol. The structure of the products was proven by UV, IR, NMR spectra and elemental analysis. A reaction mechanism leading to the products, and the carbon-sulfur bond fission in alkaline medium were discussed.
