Procedure

174.2 g (1.0 mole) of N-(2-dimethylaminoethyl)-3-methoxypropionamide (according to Example 17) are heated with 1.5 g of sodium hydroxide in a high vacuum at 90° to 110° C. Within about 30 minutes the methanol is split off, vigorous foaming occurring. The temperature is increased and 85 g (0.6 mole=60% of the theoretical yield) of colorless oil having a Bp0.1 of 85°-90° C. are distilled off.
