Procedure

A 22 ml stainless steel Parr bomb reactor was charged with 5.5 g ethylene glycol (88.6 mmol), 1.0 g morpholine (11.5 mmol), 42 mg RuCl3 ×H2O(1.7×10-4 mol) 0.52 g N-methylpyrrolidone (as internal standard) and a magnetic stirring bar in a nitrogen-filled glove box. The bomb was sealed and placed in a previously-heated oil bath with stirring. After heating for 2.5 h at 150° C. the reactor pressure was 20 psig. At this point, the bomb was cooled to room temperature at which point the pressure stood at 6 psig. The reactor was vented, opened, and the contents analyzed by GLC. The conversion of morpholine was 100% with yields of hydroxyethylmorpholine and bismorpholinoethane being 17% and 79%, respectively (r=0.82).
