DL-cysteine → HCID 512839, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

DL-Cysteine (0.0067 M) was dissolved in potassium acetate (50 mM) and the solution obtained was added slowly to N-nonyl itaconimide (0.004 M) prepared as described in Example 6 above. The reaction mixture was then dissolved in dimethylformamide with gentle stirring and triethylamine was added. Stirring was continued for a further four hours at room temperature. The progress of the reaction was monitored by reverse phase thin layer chromatography using 75% methanol in water system. The formation of the desired product was detected by the ninhydrin reaction.
