Reaction Steps

Diethylamine (350 g; 4.8 moles) was added to 344 g (4 moles) of methyl acrylate containing 500 ppm of methoxyhydroquinone and the mixture was made to react at 70°-80° C. for 15 hours, so that the addition to the double bond was completed. After completion of the reaction, the unreacted diethylamine was removed by distillation to give 630 grams of methyl beta-diethylaminopropionate. The yield was 99%.
