Reaktionsschritte

A solution of N-(2-mercaptopropanoyl)glycine (5 g, 0.031 mole) in methylene chloride (250 ml) was chilled in an ice bath and triethylamine (3.1 g, 0.031 mole) was added. Ethyl chloroformate (3.4 g, 0.031 mole) in methylene chloride (25 ml) was added dropwise over 15 minutes. The resulting solution was then stirred for two and a half hours at room temperature. The methylene chloride was washed with water, saturated aqueous sodium chloride, and dried over magnesium sulfate. Filtration and evaporation of the solvent afforded the crude product as a yellow oil which was chromatographed on silica-gel (CHCl3) to yield colorless crystals of 6-methyl[1,4]thiazine-2,5-dione (1.5 g, 30%) after crystallization from ether-hexane, m.p. 81°-83°.
