Procedure

1-(3-Acetylthiopropanoyl)-L-proline (0.8 g.) is dissolved in 5.5 N methanolic ammonia (5 ml.) and the solution kept under argon at room temperature. After 2 hours the solvent is removed in vacuo, the residue is dissolved in water and applied to an ion exchange column on the H+ cycle [Dowex 50(Analytical grade)] and eluted with water. The fractions that give thiol positive reaction are pooled and concentrated to dryness, yield 0.6 g. This product is crystallized from ethyl acetate-hexane as in Procedure A to obtain 1-(3-mercaptopropanoyl)-L-proline.
