1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-tris-alkylaminocarboxylic acid amino esters, biocidal agents containing such esters, and methods of preparing them

Claim 1

1,3,5-Triazine-2,4,6-tris-alkyleminocarboxylic acid amino esters and amides of the general formula 1,3,5-triazine-2,4.6-tris[NH--(CH.sub.2).sub.n --CO--O--R.sup.1 ](I) or 1,3,5,-triazine-2,4,6-tris[NH--(CH.sub.2).sub.n --CO--R.sup.1' ](I') in which n denotes a number in the range from 4 to 11 and R 1 denotes a C-linked radical of an alkanolamine of the general formula (R.sup.2).sub.3 N (II) and R 1' denotes a N-linked radical of an alkanolamine of the general formula (R.sup.2).sub.2 N[H] (II') in which at least one of the groups R 2 is a) a hydroxyalkyl group having 2 to 4 carbon atoms, b) a hydroxyalkyl-oxyalkylene group having 4 to 6 carbon atoms or c) a dihydroxyalkyl group having 3 to 6 carbon atoms and, in the case of the general formula II, if less than three of the groups R 2 have the above meaning, the other groups R 2 are hydrogen, or one of the groups R 2 has the abovementioned meanings and the second is an alkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms and the third is hydrogen and, in the case of general formula II', if only one of the groups R 2 have the above meaning, the other group R 2 is hydrogen, wherein the radical of formula (II) is attached via the carbon atom of the alkyl chain of the alkanolamine group.
