Abstract
Abstract This invention pertains to the production of aminoethylethanolamine in high selectivity by the intermolecular condensation of monoethanolamine with itself. Selective intermolecular condensation is achieved by reacting monoethanolamine with itself at a temperature from 175°-275° C., and a pressure from 50-400 psig, said reaction being carried out in the presence of a rare earth metal or a strontium metal hydrogen phosphate.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
106 words
In a process for the synthesis of an organic amine by the intermolecular condensation of a hydroxy composition with ammonia or a primary or secondary amine said condensation being effected in the presence of a phosphorus-containing compound as a catalyst, the improvement for producing aminoethylethanolamine in high selectivity which comprises: effecting self condensation of monoethanolamine in the presence of a catalyst comprising a rare earth metal acid phosphate selected from the group consisting of scandium, yttrium, lanthanum and the rare earth lanthanides having an Atomic Number from 58 to 71 at a pressure from 50 to 400 psig and a temperature from 175° to 275° C.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
