A polymerization inhibitor, p-methoxyphenol (1.24 g; 0.01 mole), was added to a mixture of 152 g (1.0 mole) of p-(chloromethyl)styrene, 60 g (1.5 moles) of sodium hydroxide and 0.5 liter of tetrahydrofuran. The resulting mixture was boiled, and 78 g (1.0 mole) of 2-mercaptoethanol was added dropwise over 0.5 hour. The boiling was continued for 3 hours. After cooling to room temperature, the reaction mixture was filtered by the same operation as in Example 1, and distilled under reduced pressure (140-145 ° C./1-2 mmHg) to give 93 g of 2-(4-vinylbenzylthio)ethanol as a white solid.
