Reaction of phenols, amines, and acids with 2-benzoylthio-1-methylpyridinium chloride prepared in situ from benzoyl chloride and 1-methyl-2(1H)-pyridinethione, afforded the corresponding benzoyl derivatives in good yields.In the reaction of p-nitrophenol, even catalytic amount of 1-methyl-2(1H)-pyridinethione proved to be effective.Similar reactions of p-nitrophenol with isobutyryl chloride and acetyl chloride in the presence of 1-methyl-2(1H)-pyridinethione afforded p-nitrophenyl isobutyrate and p-nitrophenyl acetate in 63 and 44percent yields, respectively. 2-Benzoylthio-, 2-acetylthio-, and 2-isobutyrylthio-1-ethylpyridinium tetrafluorobora tes were prepared by treatment of the corresponding 2-acylthiopyridines with triethyloxonium tetrafluoroborate.These pyridinium salts also acted as acylating agents in an aqueous phase. some competitive reactions of 2-aminoethanol and phenols with 2-benzoylthio-1-methylpyridinium chloride were also investigated.
