2-Bromo ethylamine.hydrobromide

Base-treatment of the compound proposed to be l-(2-bromoethyl)-2-thiourea (m.p. 173.6-174.2°), formed by the reaction of 2-bromo-ethylamine hydrobromide with potassium thiocyanate, was reported to yield 2-amino-2-thiazoline 116 however, Klayman119 has shown that the product of the thiocyanate reaction is actually 2-amino-2-thiazoline hydrobromide (m.p. 176-177°). 3-(2,3-Dibromopropyl)-2-thioureas...
