After the reaction, the reaction mixture was poured into water (500 ml.), and then extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was washed with water and a saturated aqueous solution of sodium chloride in turn and then dried over magnesium sulfate. After distillation of the solvent from the extract, the residue was pulverized in diethyl ether, collected by filtration and then dried to give colorless crystals of ethyl 2-(3-methylureido)thiazol-4-ylacetate (25.7 g.), mp 158° to 159° C.
