Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A 2.5 liter autoclave is charged, at room temperature and under nitrogen blanketing, with 429 g (2.1 mol) of o-sec-butylphenyl glycidyl ether and 30.2 g of water. Then 698.5 g (41.08 mol) of ammonia gas is blown in under pressure over 5 minutes and the reaction mixture is thereafter heated to 80° C. over 2 hours. After 1 hour at 80° C., the reaction mixture is cooled to room temperature, the pressure in the system is removed and the reaction product is concentrated on a rotary evaporator at 80° C./13 mbar. Gas chromatographic analysis shows the resultant amine to be 92.5% pure. It has a viscosity of 1240 mPa·s.
