To 15.4 g of 2-aminoethanethiol-HCl (0.13 mole) dissolved into 50 ml of water were added slowly 20 g of 2-methyl-3-tetrahydrofuranone (0.2 mole) (solution pH=2.7). The pH was kept to neutrality by adding 10% aqueous NaOH. After 1 hour, extraction of the water solution with Et2O, drying of the organic phase with MgSO4 and distillation of the crude product (Bp 1.7 mbar, 93°-96° C.) gave 18 g of the desired product (yield=90%). The product was obtained as a mixture of two diastereoisomers (isomers a and b).
