Reaction Steps

312 g of N-cyclohexyl-1,3-propanediamine are slowly added dropwise at 60° C. to a suspension of 66 g of paraformaldehyde in 200 ml of cyclohexane. The water of reaction is then removed by boiling under reflux on a water separator. Insoluble constituents are removed by filtration and the filtrate is subjected to fractional distillation. 248 g of N-cyclohexyl-hexahydropyrimidine boiling at from 87° to 91° C. at 0.3 mbar are obtained.
