Procedure

Amines can be reacted with maleic anhydride to give the corresponding half-amide derivative. Generally, a polymer containing maleic anhydride is reacted in solution or suspension with an amine in an inert or non-reactive solvent, such as acetone, heptane, benzene or dibutylether, to provide the desired half-amide derivative. This material then must be isolated and repackaged into a useful product.
