Procedure

3,5-Bis(dimethylcarbamoylthio)benzyl alcohol was treated with sodium hydroxide according to the ordinary method to give 3,5-dimercaptobenzyl alcohol. This alcohol was then brominated in a manner similar to that in EXAMPLE 17, giving 3,5-dimercaptobenzyl bromide, followed by the reaction with urea according to the ordinary method giving 3,5-dimercaptobenzyl mercaptan.
