Abstract

Sarcosine is prepared by dispersing a monohaloacetic acid or salt thereof in finely divided form (solid, liquid or solution) in methylamine at room temperature or below, preferably around 0 DEG C., using methylamine in considerable excess over the theoretical amount. The reaction is completed by standing at room temperature or by heating to 20-130 DEG C. in a pressure vessel. When anhydrous methylamine is used the temperature is preferably below -6 DEG C. Alkali may be present in the methylamine to absorb the hydrogen halide liberated, to decompose any methylamine salt of sarcosine formed and to produce the alkali salt of sarcosine if this is desired. Alternatively, the alkali may be added after the haloacetic acid salt. Examples are given of the process using chloracetic acid and its sodium salt as reactants, a minor proportion of disarcosine being obtained as by-product. Bromo-and iodo-acetic acids are also mentioned and the alkali may also be potassium hydroxide or carbonate, calcium oxide or hydroxide, pyridine, piperidine or excess methylamine. The mixing may take place as low as -70 DEG C. and is preferably carried out slowly with vigorous agitation. Batch processes are preferred to continuous operation.
