Reaktionsschritte

N-(2,3-dihydroxypropyl)-N-dodecylamine (1.00 g, 0.0039 mole) and potassium hydroxide (0.01 g, 0.18 mmole) were heated to 85° C. under vacuum and methyl-2-hydroxyhexadecanoate (1.12 g, 0.0039 mole) was heated and added dropwise to the reaction. The reaction was heated under vacuum for 6 hours. A waxy off-white solid was obtained (crude yield=1.9 g). The waxy solid was recrystalized from hot hexane (yield=1.26 g).
