Preparation Examples

Example 1 : Preparation of the compound of formula (101 )

First step:

9.25 g (0.08 mole) of cyclohexane-1.3-dion were dissolved in 30 ml. toluene. The mixture was cooled down to 0°C and then 19.71 g (0.08 mole) of bis-2-ethylhexylamine were added under stirring. The mixture was heated at 180 °C for 4 hours in an autoclave. After distilling off the solvent and unreacted amine at 150 °C under 1x10 "3 mbar pressure N,N-bis-2-ethyl- hexylamino-cyclohexene-3-one is obtained as a darkbrownish oil in yields of 74 %. b.p. = 180 0 C (0.1 mbar).

Second step:

3.65 g (0.028 mole) of dimethylsulfate are added dropwise to 8.39 g (0.025 mole) of N,N-bis- 2-ethylhexylamino-cyclohexene-3-one. The mixture is stirred for 40 minutes at 100°C. After cooling down to 60°C a mixture of 1.70 g (0.0252 mole) of malononitrile and 2.76 g (0.0271 mole) of triethylamine in 12 ml of isopropanol are added within 10 minutes. The resulting mixture is then heated at approximately 90°C for 60 minutes.

2-{3-[Bis-(2-ethyl-hexyl)-amino]-cyclohex-2-enylidene}-ma lononitrile is then isolated by distillation at 230°C under 0.1 mbar pressure yielding an orange oil (78 %).
