Glycidyl methacrylate → HCID 53933816, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

10.0 g (133.1 mmol) of 2-(methylamino)ethanol and 85 g of tetrahydrofurfuryl methacrylate were weighed into a 250 ml three-neck flask with magnetic stirrer bar, thermometer and reflux condenser. At room temperature, 19.5 g (137.1 mmol) of glycidyl methacrylate were slowly added dropwise while stirring constantly. In the course of this, slight exothermicity was observed, but the temperature never exceeded 70° C. After stirring at 70° C. for 6 hours, it was possible to detect only small traces of 2-(methylamino)ethanol by means of a gas chromatograph. This approx. 25% product solution in tetrahydrofurfuryl methacrylate was transferred into a glass bottle and used in the model formulations without further workup.
