Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 100 words
A method for preparing a threo-2-hydroxy-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-3-(2-nitrophenylthio)propionic ester of the formula: ##STR10## wherein R is an ester residue, which comprises condensing a trans-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)glycidic ester of the formula: ##STR11## wherein R is the same as defined above, with 2-nitrothiophenol in the presence of a Lewis acid selected from the group consisting of boron trifluoride, stannous halide, stannic halide, zinc halide, ferrous halide, ferric halide, cuprous halide, cupric halide, antimony trihalide, antimony pentahalide, cadmium halide, nickel halide, stannous alkanoate, stannic alkanoate, zinc alkanoate, zinc salicylate, zinc oxalate, sulfuric acid, perhalogenic acid, alkanoic acid, aromatic carboxylic acid, sulfonic acid, phosphoric acid and polyphosphoric acid.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 100 words
A method for preparing a threo-2-hydroxy-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-3-(2-nitrophenylthio)propionic ester of the formula: ##STR10## wherein R is an ester residue, which comprises condensing a trans-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)glycidic ester of the formula: ##STR11## wherein R is the same as defined above, with 2-nitrothiophenol in the presence of a Lewis acid selected from the group consisting of boron trifluoride, stannous halide, stannic halide, zinc halide, ferrous halide, ferric halide, cuprous halide, cupric halide, antimony trihalide, antimony pentahalide, cadmium halide, nickel halide, stannous alkanoate, stannic alkanoate, zinc alkanoate, zinc salicylate, zinc oxalate, sulfuric acid, perhalogenic acid, alkanoic acid, aromatic carboxylic acid, sulfonic acid, phosphoric acid and polyphosphoric acid.
