Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 27 g of N-methyl-(3-(methyldimethoxysilyl)propyl)amine (0.152 mol, 20% excess) and of 16 g of diisopropylcarbodiimide (0.127 mol) was heated for 8 h at 100° C. (carbodiimide conversion of 98%). The final colorless mixture was devolatilized at 100° C. under 2 mbar for 2 h to give 39.3 g of a colorless, low-viscosity liquid corresponding to the expected guanidine, containing 2 wt % of the initial amine.
