Methanol → N,N-Bis(3-aminopropyl)dodecylamine

Participants

Reaction Steps

670 g of laurylamine (C12 -fraction: 73 mole %, and C14 -fraction: 23 mole %) were reacted in the manner already described in Example 1 with 373 g of acrylonitrile in 68 g of water, 34 g of methanol and 14 g of concentrated acetic acid, and the product was then hydrogenated. 2,020 g of bis-(3-aminopropyl)-laurylamine were obtained after the hydrogenation. 954 g of this triamine were condensed with 640 g of ethylene oxide. 1,590 g of bis-(3-aminopropyl)-laurylamine ethoxylate (99%) were obtained. 257 g of this ethoxylate and 538 g of water were reacted with 146 g of 70% by weight strength H2O2. The triamine-trioxide was obtained in 935 g of a 30% by weight strength aqueous solution.
