The ethylmercaptan excess is distilled off under a high vacuum, the residue is taken up in ethanol, and the product is crystallized by pouring into ice-water. After filtration this gives 140.5 g of 2-mercaptoethyl-5-nitrophenyl hydroxyethyl sulfone having a melting of 112°-114° C. (purity >95%), which corresponds to a yield of 91.5% of theory, relative to starting 2-chloro-5-nitrophenyl hydroxyethyl sulfone.
