HCID 67653663, compound → Morpholine, 4-(2-methoxyethyl)-

Participants

Reaction Steps

Using the apparatus employed in Examples 5-27, a 20 percent (volume) solution of 4-(2-hydroxyethyl)morpholine methyl carbonate prepared in Example 30 in cyclohexane was passed through 6.0 grams of Catalyst J at a temperature of 300° C. and a liquid feed rate of 0.27 milliliters per minute. A total of 7.4 grams of product was recovered. Capillary gas chromatographic analysis (area percent) of this material showed 67.7 percent selectivity to 4-(2-methoxyethyl)morpholine at 100 percent 4-(2-hydroxyethyl)morpholine methyl carbonate conversion.
