Abstract

Abstract The invention provides novel mixtures of at least two aminoalkanols of the formula: ##STR1## wherein R 1 and R 2 each represent a C 1-21 alkyl and the sum of the carbon atoms in R 1 and R 2 is 6 to 22; and the R 1 --CH--CH--R 2 units are mixtures containing 8 to 24 carbon atoms of at least two compounds. The vicinal OH and NH 2 substituents are uniformly distributed statistically along the chain. The mixtures are readily prepared from mixtures of C 8 -C 24 olefins by epoxidation followed by reaction with ammonia. The mixtures are useful as intermediates in the production of hydroxyalkyl-aminobutyric acid mixtures for lubricating the cold working of aluminum and as corrosion inhibitors for corrodible iron-containing metals.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 53 words
Mixtures of at least two aminoalkanols of the formula: ##STR5## wherein R 1 and R 2 represent C 1-21 alkyl; and wherein the sum of the carbon atoms in R 1 and R 2 is between 6 and 22 and the vicinal substituents are uniformly distributed along the R 1 --CH--CH--R 2 chain.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 53 words
Mixtures of at least two aminoalkanols of the formula: ##STR5## wherein R 1 and R 2 represent C 1-21 alkyl; and wherein the sum of the carbon atoms in R 1 and R 2 is between 6 and 22 and the vicinal substituents are uniformly distributed along the R 1 --CH--CH--R 2 chain.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 23 words
Aminoalkanol mixtures of claim 1 wherein the sum of the carbon atoms in R 1 and R 2 is between 9 and 12.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 22 words
Aminoalkanol mixtures of claim 1 wherein the sum of carbon atoms in R 1 and R 2 is between 13 and 16.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 18 words
Salts of the aminoalkanol mixtures of claim 1 with aliphatic carboxylic acids of 2 and 24 carbon atoms.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 90 words
A method for the preparation of the aminoalkanol mixture of Claim 1, which comprises forming a reaction mixture of (a) 1 mol of non-terminal epoxy alkanes produced by dehydrogenating a mixture of C 8 -C 24 paraffins, removing any polyolefins and terminally-unsaturated olefins normally thereby produced, and epoxidizing the residue, (b) 5 to 20 mols of ammonia, and (c) 1 to 20 mols of water, and heating the mixture under autogenous pressure in an autoclave at 160° C. to 220° C. until the mixture has come to substantial chemical equilibrium.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 16 words
A method according to claim 5 wherein the amount of ammonia is 10 to 15 mols.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 16 words
A method according to claim 5 wherein the amount of water is 5 to 15 mols.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 21 words
A method according to claim 5 wherein the temperature of the mixture in the autoclave is 190° C. to 210° C.
