Procedure

3-(1-Hydroxyethyl)-5-ethyl-2-oxazolidinone is prepared from 72 g (0.626 mole) of 5-ethyl-2-oxazolidinone by the procedure described in Example 1. A total of 96 g of 3-(1-hyroxyethyl)-5-ethyl-2-oxazolidinone is obtained (87 percent conversion). The 3-(1-hydroxyethyl)-5-ethyl-2-oxazolidinone is dehydrated in the hot tube filled with steel helices which is coated with a catalyst of NaHSO4. The dehydration is conducted at 260° C. under 40 mm Hg pressure. A dark red liquid (83 g) is collected which gives 64.6 g of N-vinyl-5-ethyl-2-oxazolidinone and 10.4 g of 5-ethyl-2-oxazolidinone upon fractionation. The yield is 87 percent based on 86 percent conversion of 5-ethyl-2-oxazolidinone.
