To a stirred solution of 40.0 grams (0.037 mole) 3-mercapto-1,2-propanediol in 300 milliliters of 95% ethanol, 24.9 grams (0.44 mole) of KOH was added under an inert atmosphere of nitrogen. Then, a solution of 135.0 grams (0.44 mole) bromohexadecane in 100 milliliters of 95% ethanol was added dropwise over a one-hour period, and the reaction allowed to proceed at room temperature with vigorous stirring for 24 hours. The precipitate was filtered, taken up in one liter of boiling methanol and cooled to 0° Centigrade for twelve hours. The precipitate was filtered and allowed to air dry, producing 117 grams (95%) of product (mp 72°-74° Centigrade).
