Procedure

A solution of 75 g. (1 mole) of 3-aminopropanol is stirred while 54 g. (1 mole) of acrylonitrile is added dropwise. After being allowed to stand at room temperature for several hours and preferably overnight, the reaction mixture is concentrated under reduced pressure at 50° yielding 3-(2-cyanoethyl)aminopropanol.

Workup

  1. concentrationthe reaction mixture is concentrated under reduced pressure at 50°
