Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a 1 L Morton flask was added diallylmethylamine (86.1 g), 1,10-dibromodecane (112 g), and methanol (100 mL). The mixture was heated to 65° C. for 24 h, and then allowed to cool to room temperature. The solvent was removed by rotary vacuum evaporation. Diethylether (400 mL) was added and the mixture was stirred for 1 hr. The mixture was allowed to settle and the top layer was decanted and discarded. The remaining oil was dried by rotary vacuum evaporation to yield 215 g of product.
