Palmitoyl chloride → N,N'-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)-N-palmitoyl-N'-oleoyl-1,2-diaminoethane

Participants

Reaction Steps

Into a 500 ml rounded-flask, were introduced 4.0 g of magnesium oxide and 80 g of distilled water. The mixture was stirred. Thereto was added 7.3 g of N,N'-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)-1,2-diaminoethane prepared in Example 27, and then was added 250 ml of 1,4-dioxane. 13.4 g of palmitoyl chloride was gradually added dropwise to the resulting mixture for 1 hour under violent stirring at 10° C. After stirring for 2 hours at 10° C., 14.7 g of oleoyl chloride was gradually added dropwise thereto for 1 hour. After stirring for 2 hours, the mixture was filtered, and then the filtrate was mixed with 200 ml of chloroform, and washed twice with 200 ml of distilled water. The organic phase was cooled to produce solid material, which was recovered by filtration. The solid material was dried and recrystallized from acetone, to give 26.5 g of the title compound as white powder, which was identified by IR and NMR. The results are shown in Table 3.
