Friedel-Crafts Reaction of 1,3,5-Trialkylbenzenes with Sulfur Monochloride and N-Chlorodimethylamine

Abstract
The reaction of sulfur monochloride gave 2,4,6-tri-t-butylchlorobenzene (3) from 1,3,5-tri-t-butylbenzene (1), but gave the corresponding sulfide and disulfide from mesitylene (2). The reaction of N-chlorodimethylamine gave 3, 2-chloro-3,5-di-t-butyltoluene and 2,4,6-trimethylchlorobenzene from 1, 3,5-di-t-butyltoluene and 2, respectively. The reaction of N-chlorodimethylamine with benzene gave chlorobenzene or N,N-dimethylaniline in 1-nitropropane or nitromethane.
