Participants

Reaction Steps

A stirred solution of N-cyano-bis(methylthio)methanimine (30 g) in warm ethanol (150 ml) was treated dropwise with 2-dimethylaminoethylamine (24 ml) during 1 hour and stirring was continued for a further period of 3 hours. The resulting white precipitate was recrystallised from ethanol, to give N-cyano-N'-(2-dimethylaminoethyl)-S-methylisothiourea (13.4 g), m.p. 94°-95° C.
