Abstract There is disclosed a compound having the following structural formula: ##STR1## WHEREIN X, Y, and Z each being selected from the group consisting of ##STR2## wherein one of R 1 and R 2 is hydrogen and the other is an alkyl group having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms with the alkyl to hydrogen mole ratio being less than 0.4 and X being an integer of at least 1 and R 3 is a diradical selected for the group consisting of R 3 is a diradical of either: (a) 1 to 6 methylene groups (b) a diradical of: --CH═CH-- (c) a diradical of: ##STR3## where R 1 , R 2 and X are as defined above Alkyl radicals having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms ##STR4## wherein A is an alkylene radical having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms and X and Y are as defined above Wherein at least one of X, Y and Z has structural formula (1) and ##STR5## WHEREIN B & C are each selected for the group consisting of radicals having above structural formula (1), above structural formula (2) and alkyl group having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms with at least one of B & C having structural formula (1). A water solution of an effective amount of such compound exhibits excellent fabric softening properties. Such compound is formed by reacting polyoxyalkalene triamine compounds with an alkyloxy hydrocarbon under mild processing conditions.
