Abstract

Abstract N- and O-substituted carbamates are prepared by reacting urea with an aminopropanol at 140° C. or above. The compounds obtained by the novel process are useful starting materials for the preparation of textile finishing agents, stabilizers, plasticizers, dyes and crop protection agents.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim 82 words
A process for the preparation of an N- and O-substituted carbamate of the formula ##STR7## where the individual radicals R 1 and R 2 are identical or different and are each an aliphatic, cycloaliphatic or araliphatic radical, or R 1 and R 2 , together with the adjacent nitrogen atom, can furthermore form a heterocyclic ring, wherein urea is reacted with an aminopropanol of the formula ##STR8## where R 1 and R 2 have the above meanings, at 140° C. or above.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 82 words
A process for the preparation of an N- and O-substituted carbamate of the formula ##STR7## where the individual radicals R 1 and R 2 are identical or different and are each an aliphatic, cycloaliphatic or araliphatic radical, or R 1 and R 2 , together with the adjacent nitrogen atom, can furthermore form a heterocyclic ring, wherein urea is reacted with an aminopropanol of the formula ##STR8## where R 1 and R 2 have the above meanings, at 140° C. or above.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 27 words
The process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the reaction is carried out using from 0.5 to 10 moles of starting material II per mole of urea.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 34 words
The process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the reaction is carried out in the absence of an additional solvent, using from 0.8 to 10 moles of starting material II per mole of urea.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 19 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the reaction is carried out at between 140° and 260° C.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 19 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the reaction is carried out at from 160° to 240° C.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 36 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the reaction is carried out using from 50 to 1,000% by weight, based on starting material II, or an organic solvent which is inert under the reaction conditions.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 17 words
A process as claimed in claim 1 which is carried out in the absence of a catalyst.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 106 words
A process as claimed in claim 1 wherein a starting material II is used in which the radicals R 1 and R 2 are identical or different and are each alkyl of 1 to 18 carbon atoms, alkenyl of 2 to 12 carbon atoms, cycloalkyl of 3 to 8 carbon atoms or aralkyl of 7 to 12 carbon atoms, or R 1 and R 2 together with the adjacent nitrogen atom form a 3-to 7-membered ring which may further contain a nitrogen, oxygen or sulfur atom, and each of said radicals may be further substituted by alkyl or alkoxy, each of 1 to 4 carbon atoms.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 17 words
A process as claimed in claim 8 which is carried out in the absence of a catalyst.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 36 words
A process as claimed in claim 8 wherein the reaction is carried out using from 0.5 to 10 moles of starting material II per mole of urea and at a temperature between 140° to 260° C.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 17 words
A process as claimed in claim 10 which is carried out in the absence of a catalyst.
