The pressure in the flask is reduced to less than 5 mm. and the flask is heated to 80°C. Vigorous reaction begins and liquid condenses in the receiver. After about one-half hour, the temperature is increased to 90°C. and this temperature is maintained for 3 hours. The product is distilled and the desired N-(1,1-dimethyl-3-dimethylaminobutyl)acrylamide is obtained at 80°-91°C./ 0.3-0.4 mm. The yield is 109.1 parts, or 87.4% of the theoretical amount, and the nitrogen percentage is the calculated 14.1%.
