Reaction Steps

N-Isobutyryl-L-cysteine (9.5 g, 50 mmol) was dissolved in 50 mL of water. Hydrogen peroxide (30%, 3.1 mL, 30 mmol) was added and the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 6 hours. After evaporation of the solvent under reduced pressure, a white crystallised oil (9.8 g) was obtained. Recrystallisation from ethyl acetate furnished the title compound as a white solid which was dried in vacuo.
