This example describes the preparation of disodium carboxymethyl dithiocarbamate useful as a suspressant in ore flotation processes. To a 1-Liter round bottom flask fitted with a stirrer, thermometer, reflux condenser and a dropping funnel was added 253 milliliters of water and 84.0 grams (2.1 moles) of sodium hydroxide. After the NaOH had completely dissolved and the temperature had cooled below about 30° C., 75.0 grams (1.0 mole) of glycine was added and the mixture stirred until it was dissolved. Over the next 6 hours 76.14 grams (1.0 mole) of CS2 was slowly added while the temperature was maintained below about 40° C. The reaction product mixture was considered to be a 40 percent aqueous solution of disodium carboxymethyl dithiocarbamate and was used as prepared in the subsequent ore flotation processes. Similarly, disodium 1-carboxyethyl dithiocarbamate was prepared from α-alanine, CS2 and NaOH.
