Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

In 100 ml of benzene, 0.1 mol of 2-chloroethylamine hydrochloride and 0.1 mol of 2-mercaptothiazoline were dispersed, gradually heated to 80° C., and stirred for reaction at this temperature for 30 minutes. After completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture was filtered to obtain white 2-(2-aminoethylthio)-thiazoline dihydrochloride powder in a yield of 99.7%. In 100 ml of 36 wt % hydrochloric acid, 23.5 g (0.1 mol) of 2-(2-aminoethylthio)-thiazoline dihydrochloride was dissolved. The resultant solution was refluxed for 30 hours, to obtain cysteamine hydrochloride. Then, the cysteamine hydrochloride was concentrated to dryness under a vacuum and then thoroughly dissolved by heating to a temperature above 80° C. The solution was aspired with a Pasteur pipet 2 mm in mouth diameter and dropped onto a tetrafluoroethylene plate having the opposite side thereof cooled with water to 30° C. The white solid cysteamine hydrochloride heaps consequently deposited on the plate were hemispheres 3 to 5 mm in diameter and 2 to 3 mm in height.
