The reaction was again repeated using identical amounts of phenol and methyl disulfide and 2.8 g of the solid H ELZ-20 catalyst recovered from the first repetition. The mixture was heated for 4 hours at which time the temperature was 179° C. After work-up as before, GC analysis indicated the presence of phenol (5.7 g, 46% recovered), ortho-(methylthio)phenol (5.1 g, 41% yield), para-(methylthio)phenol (2.7 g), and di-(methylthio)phenols (2.4 g).
