Procedure
In 100 ml of benzene 3.30 ml (0.03 mole) of N,N-dimethylethylenediamine was combined with 3.84 g (0.03 mole) of 3,3-dimethylglutaraldehyde under nitrogen. The reaction mixture was warmed to reflux and water azeotroped off via a Dean-Stark trap. After 15 hours the benzene was evaporated in vacuo giving 5.76 g of crude product as a brown liquid. The crude product was distilled to yield 2.41 g of the title compound as a clear liquid, bp 60° C./0.2 mm Hg.
