Procedure

The general procedure of Example 1 is repeated, substituting the hydroxymethyltriazine Hexamethylolmelamine (10.0 g, 0.0327 mole), n-propyl carbamate (20.2 g, 0.196 mole), and para-toluenesulfonic acid (0.60 g, 0.0035 mole) are stirred at 95° C. in a flask equipped with a vacuum distillation head. During 30 minutes, the pressure is lowered in stages to 50 mm Hg., and 3.24 g. of distillate (mostly water, 92% of theoretical) is collected in the distillate receiver. At room temperature, the product in the reaction vessel is a gray-white solid. The infrared spectrum shows little or no residual hydroxyl functionality and is similar to the spectrum of authentic hexa-n-propylcarbamylmethylated melamine, made by Example 1. The general formula is, approximately:
