Reaktionsschritte

To 50 ml of ethanol, 20.3 g (0.3 mole) of methylamine hydrochloride and 30.9 g (0.36 mole) of 37% formaldehyde aqueous solution were added and the mixture was warmed to 35°-40° C. Then, a solution prepared by dissolving 30.9 g (0.3 mole) of isopropyl carbamate in 150 ml of ethanol was added dropwise to the mixture with stirring maintaining the said temperature. After the dropwise addition of the solution, stirring was continued for 1 hour with heating and then the solvent was removed by distillation under reduced pressure. The residue was recrystallized from ethanol to give 42.7 g of isopropyl N-(methylaminomethyl)carbamate hydrochloride having a melting point of 163°-164° C. in yield of 77.8%. ##STR5##
