Abstract

Abstract Amides are prepared by reacting an aromatic amine with an acid chloride in the presence of a neutralizing agent and a catalytic amount of a strongly basic tertiary amine; for example, N-(4anilinophenyl) methacrylamide prepared by reacting paminodiphenylamine with methacryloyl chloride in the presence of sodium carbonate and triethylamine.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim 126 words
A PROCESS OF PREPARING AN AMIDE BY REACTING AN AROMATIC AMINE WITH AN ACID CHLORIDE IN AN APROTIC SOLVENT SOLUTION THEREOF IN THE PRESENCE OF AN INORGANIC NEUTRALIZING AGENT AND A CATALYTIC AMOUNT OF A TERTIARY AMINE, WHEREIN THE AROMATIC AMINE, NEUTRALIZING AGENT AND TERTIARY AMINE ARE COMBINED IN THE APROTIC SOLVENT, SAID COMBINATION THEN BEING COMBINED WITH THE ACID CHLORIDE AT A TEMPERATURE OF LESS THAN 50*C., AND THE REACTION OCCURRING AT A TEMPERATURE OF LESS THAN 50*C., WHEREIN AT LEAST ONE MOLE EQUIVALENT OF THE NEUTRALIZING AGENT IS USED PER MOLE OF AROMATIC AMINE AND WHEREIN THE CATALYTIC AMOUNT OF THE TERTIARY AMINE IS 0.0033 MOLE TO 0.20 MOLE PER MOLE OF AROMATIC AMINE AND WHEREIN THE AROMATIC AMINE HAS THE FOLLOWING STRUCTURAL FORMULA
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 126 words
A PROCESS OF PREPARING AN AMIDE BY REACTING AN AROMATIC AMINE WITH AN ACID CHLORIDE IN AN APROTIC SOLVENT SOLUTION THEREOF IN THE PRESENCE OF AN INORGANIC NEUTRALIZING AGENT AND A CATALYTIC AMOUNT OF A TERTIARY AMINE, WHEREIN THE AROMATIC AMINE, NEUTRALIZING AGENT AND TERTIARY AMINE ARE COMBINED IN THE APROTIC SOLVENT, SAID COMBINATION THEN BEING COMBINED WITH THE ACID CHLORIDE AT A TEMPERATURE OF LESS THAN 50*C., AND THE REACTION OCCURRING AT A TEMPERATURE OF LESS THAN 50*C., WHEREIN AT LEAST ONE MOLE EQUIVALENT OF THE NEUTRALIZING AGENT IS USED PER MOLE OF AROMATIC AMINE AND WHEREIN THE CATALYTIC AMOUNT OF THE TERTIARY AMINE IS 0.0033 MOLE TO 0.20 MOLE PER MOLE OF AROMATIC AMINE AND WHEREIN THE AROMATIC AMINE HAS THE FOLLOWING STRUCTURAL FORMULA
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 21 words

Claim 5
Dependent Claim 16 words
The process according to claim 3 wherein the catalyst level is from 0.033 to 0.04 mole.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 14 words
The process according to claim 3 wherein R18 is hydrogen and R3 is phenyl.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 23 words

Claim 8
Dependent Claim 29 words
The process according to claim 3 wherein the aromatic amine is p-aminodiphenyl amine and the acid chloride is selected from the group consisting of acryloyl chloride and methacryloyl chloride.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 13 words
The process according to claim 7 wherein the neutralizing agent is sodium carbonate.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 33 words
The process according to claim 8 wherein when the acid chloride is acryloyl chloride the tertiary amine is triisopropanol amine and when the acid chloride is methacryloyl chloride, the tertiary amine is N,N''-dimethylaniline.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 26 words
The process according to claim 3 wherein the acid chloride is methacryloyl chloride, and is added at a temperature of from 0* C. to 30* C.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 40 words
