Title:
PRODUCTION OF AMINE OXIDE
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3926414
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain the subject compound with excellent long-term storage stability, useful as a surfactant, in the form of e.g. a detergent, by oxidizing a tertiary amine with H2O2 and adjusting to a specific pH range.
SOLUTION: This amine oxide represented by formula II is produced by reacting a tertiary amine (e.g. dimethyloctylamine), represented by formula I (R1 is a 8-26C alkyl, etc.; R2 is a 1-26C alkyl, etc.; R3 is 1-3C alkyl, etc.) with normally 35wt.% aqueous H2O2, in a molar ratio of 1:(1.0-1.05) at 50-80°C, followed by adjusting the system of pH9-13, preferably, pH10-12 by addition of an alkali, such as NaOH. To further suppress decomposition of the reaction product, the compound of formula II, it is preferable to add a metal blocking agent in an amount corresponding to 0.005-3wt.% of the compound of formula II.
