Polyamines and their preparation
摘要:
The present invention is directed to polyamines represented by the following general structure:
where
R is an organic group,
R' is H or CH₃, and
x=0 -3. Tri, tetra, penta and hexa amines, accordingly, are disclosed.
The method for making the novel polyamines comprises a multi-step reaction that commences in step (a) with the cyanoethylation of a primary amine, R-NH₂, with acrylonitrile under cyanoethylation conditions to form an aminonitrile of the structure R-NH-CH₂-CH₂-CN. The aminonitrile in step (b) is methylated by reaction with formic acid and formaldehyde under Leuckart reaction conditions to form a monomethyl aminonitrile of the structure R-N(CH₃)-CH₂-CH₂-CN. The monomethyl aminonitrile then in step (c) is reduced, preferably by hydrogenation under hydrogenation conditions, to form a monomethyl diamine of the structure R-N(CH₃)-CH₂-CH₂-CH₂-NH₂. The monomethyl diamine then in step (d) is chain extended again by cyanoethylation with acrylonitrile under cyanoethylation conditions to form a monomethyl diaminonitrile of the structure R-N(CH₃)-CH₂-CH₂-CH₂-NH-CH₂-CH₂-CN. Finally, the monomethyl diaminonitrile in step (e) is reduced, preferably by hydrogenation under hydrogenation conditions to form the novel polyamine. Repeating step (b) results in R' being a methyl group. Repeating steps (d) and (e) extends x up to 4.
