HCID 2459623-octadecylsulfanylpropane-1,2-diol

Procedure

The octadecyl mercaptan is then condensed with 4 moles glycidol per mole octadecyl mercaptan, by first introducing a first molar equivalent of glycidol to obtain 3-octadecylthio-propane-1,2 diol at 80° C, the rest of the glycidol then being introduced at 155° C in the course of 2 hours 20 minutes.
