| Zusammenfassung: | The following invention regards a process of demethylating a methyl ester of methionine or its hydroxy analog and producing methane thiol as a side-product. The methionine and its hydroxy analog are suitable as an animal feed additive and as a food additive. The methane thiol may be consumed in a hydrothiolation step such as in a step of preparing the methyl ester of methio- nine or its hydroxy analog from from methyl vinyl glycolate. |
