After stirring for 15 minutes, 2.49 g (0.017 mole) 2-methylthio-2,4-dimethyl-3-aminopentane was added and the mixture stirred for one hour. The reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate, washed with water, 5% aqueous citric acid (w/v), sodium bicarbonate solution and brine. The organic phase was evaporated to provide 6.0 g. of residue. This was taken up in 100 ml. methanol, 60 ml. of concentrated hydrochloric acid added and the mixture refluxed for one hour. After evaporation of methanol, the residue was taken up in water, washed with ether, the aqueous phase adjusted to pH 12 with sodium hydroxide and extracted with ethyl ether. Evaporation of the extracts gave 3.2 g. (87%) of product as a colorless oil Rf 0.56 (butanol/water/acetic acid-4:1:1 by volume.
