Procedure

A solution of 9.1 g (44 mmol) of methyl ester of N-(2-mercaptoethyl)glutaramic acid obtained in Example 4a), in 100 cm3 of aqueous 20% solution of aqueous ammonia was stirred for 4 hours at ambient temperature under argon atmosphere. After evaporation to dryness and recrystallization from isopropanol 7 g of N-(2-mercaptoethyl)glutaramide were obtained in the form of a white solid with a melting point of 127° C.
