Linear anhydrides are formed by the action of acetic anhydride on p-toluene-sulphonylglycine and carbobenzyloxy-glycine, -phenylalanine, and -β-alanine. The anhydrides from the first two acids yield the corresponding 2-thiohydantoin with ammonium thiocyanate in acetic acid. Other methods for the preparation of l-p-toluenesulphonylglycine anhydride, and its 2-thiohydantoin, are also given. Hippuric acid, with ethyl chlorocarbonate and triethylamine yields ethyl hippurate, probably via the mixed anhydride and 2-phenyloxazol-5-one. The inclusion of ammonium thiocyanate gives 1-benzoyl-2-thiohydantoin in high yield. The N-carboxy anhydride of phenylalanine (4-benzyloxazolid-2,5-dione) also reacts with ammonium thiocyanate to give carbon dioxide and 5-benzyl-2-thiohydantoin.

The pyrolysis of phenylmercaptoacetic acid was investigated by the toluene-carrier technique over the temperature range 760–835 °K. The main products of the decomposition were phenyl mercaptan, carbon dioxide, acetic acid, phenyl methyl sulfide, carbon monoxide, and dibenzyl.The overall decomposition was a first-order reaction with respect to phenylmercaptoacetic acid and could be represented by the two parallel steps:[Formula: see text]Reaction [1] was shown to be a homogeneous first-order dissociation process, and its rate constant was represented by the expression[Formula: see text]The activation energy of this reaction, i.e. 58 kcal/mole, was identified with D(C6H5S—CH2COOH).

The initial rates of product formation in the photooxidation of acetaldehyde at room temperature have been determined through the use of infrared spectrometry. The rates of formation of the products peroxyacetic acid, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, methanol, formic acid, and acetic acid were determined in experiments with various pressures of acetaldehyde, oxygen, and added gases. The amounts of methylhydroperoxide and acetylperoxide formed in all of the experiments were below the detection limit of the analytical methods. The results require that some modification and corrections be made to the mechanism suggested by McDowell and Sharples.
