Procedure

A process for preparing bis[2-(N,N-dimethylamino)ethyl]ether which comprises (i) contacting 2-(N,N-dimethylamino)ethanol with diethyl carbonate under conditions effective to produce bis[2-(N,N-dimethylamino)ethyl]carbonate, and (ii) contacting bis[2-(N,N-dimethylamino)ethyl]-carbonate with a magnesium:aluminum mixed metal oxide catalyst under conditions effective to produce bis[2-(N,N-dimethylamino)ethyl]ether.
