Abstract

There are provided processes for preparing N-ethylethylenediamine (NEED) in good yield and purity. In one embodiment the process comprises reacting ethylenediamine (EDA) and an ethyl halide at a mole ratio of EPA to said ethyl halide of about 1-20:1 and a temperature of from about -10 DEG C. to about 120 DEG C. in the presence of about 0-50% by weight of water to obtain an alkylation reaction mixture; neutralizing said reaction mixture by contacting with an aqueous solution containing about 1-2 molecular equivalents of an inorganic alkalizing agent based on the ethyl halide; separating the aqueous layer from the neutralized organic layer and adding to said organic layer about 0.2-100% by weight, based on the weight of said organic layer, of a suitable aliphatic of hydrocarbon solvent; azeotropically fractionally distilling all water and EPA from the resulting mixture; and fractionally distilling the resulting reaction mixture to remove residual hydrocarbon solvent and recover NEED. In a modified embodiment the process comprises (a) reacting an ethyl halide and the ethylenediamine (EDA) at a mole ratio of EDA to said ethyl halide of about 1-20 to 1, and at a temperature of about -10 DEG C to about 120 DEG C under anhydrous conditions to obtain an alkylation reaction mixture; (b) adding to said reaction mixture about 0.2-30% by weight of a suitable aliphatic hydrocarbon solvent, based on the weight of said reaction mixture; (c) fractionally distilling the EDA and said aliphatic hydrocarbon solvent to essentially remove EDA; (d) neutralizing the resulting mixture by contacting it with at least 0.9 molecular equivalent of a suitable alkalizing agent, per mole of said ethyl halide, to form a slurry of an alkali halide precipitate; (e) separating said alkali halide precipitate from said slurry and recovering the resulting mother liquor; (f) washing said separated alkali halide with said aliphatic hydrocarbon solvent; (g) fractionally distilling a combination of said mother liquor from step (e) plus recovered aliphatic hydrocarbon wash liquor from step (f) to remove essentially all water and residual EDA from the resulting mixture; and (h) fractionally distilling said resulting mixture to remove residual aliphatic hydrocarbon solvent and recover said NEED.
