Reaction Steps

A mixture of 9 g of 5-hydroxy-pyrrolidin-2-one in 40 cm3 of 2-propanethiol and 5 g of Amberlite resin IR 120 H is maintained for 80 hours at ambient temperature. After diluting with ether, filtering, and concentrating under reduced pressure, 8.5 g of the expected product is obtained. m.p. 77°-79° C., crystallized from isopropyl ether. m.p. 85°-87° C. after re-crystallization.
