Participants

Reaction Steps

22.5g (0.08 mol) of N-(2-benzoylmercaptopropionyl-β-alanine was added to the solution of 10.0g (0.25 mol) of NaOH in 100 ml of water to allow the β-alanine derivative to hydrolyze at 40°C for 1 hour. The reaction mixture was acidified with hydrochloric acid and, after distilling off the benzoic acid, concentrated to give 8.8g of N-(2-mercaptopropionyl-βalanine, ##EQU11##
