HCID 939642,2,5,5-Tetramethyl-1,3-thiazolidine-4-carboxylic acid

Procedure

Ninety-three grams (0.5 mole) of D,L-penicillamine hydrochloride in 500 ml of acetone were heated at reflux temperature for 30 minutes under a nitrogen atmosphere. After distilling off the excess acetone there were obtained 113 grams of D,L-2,2,5,5-tetramethyl-thiazolidine-4-carboxylic acid. The yield amounts to 99%.
