Methanethiol → HCID 54396551, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of methacryloyl isocyanate (4.9 g; 44 mmol) in 1,2-dichloroethane (12 ml), 2,6-di-t-butyl-4-methylphenol (50 mg) was added, and the resultant solution was ice-cooled. Methylmercaptan gas and nitrogen gas were blown into the solution. After completion of the reaction, the solvent was removed by evaporation under reduced pressure to give methyl N-methacryloylthiocarbamate (4.98 g), which was recrystallized from a mixture of hexane and benzene to give colorless prisms. M.P., 66°-68° C.
