Abstract
Inisubstituted primary methylamines are obtained by hydrolysis of N-substituted formamides containing a tertiary carbon atom attached to amido nitrogen, which tertiary carbon atom may carry either aliphatic substituents or aliphatic substituents together with a cycloalkyl, an aralkyl or an aryl radical, or may be part of a monocyclic cycloaliphatic ring, the hydrolysis being carried out in the presence of acid at a temperature above 70 DEG C., preferably between 100 DEG and 120 DEG C. The acid used is preferably a strong mineral acid, e.g. sulphuric or hydrochloric acid, but strong organic acids, e.g. aryl or alkyl sulphonic acids or oxalic acid, may be used. Preferably at least one mol. of acid is used for each mol. of N-substituted formamide, and the acid may be mixed with water, a suitable mixture being one containing 10 to 85 per cent of acid by weight. The N-substituted formamides may be obtained by reaction of hydrogen cyanide, in the presence of an acid-reacting catalyst, with an olefin which gives a tertiary alkanol on reaction with water as described in Specification 796,572. Suitable starting materials are N - t - butyl formamide, N - (1,1,3,3 - tetramethylbutyl) - formamide, N - (1 - methylcyclohexyl) - formamide and N - (2 - phenylisopropyl) - formamide. The N - substituted formamide may be hydrolysed directly, without isolation from the reaction mixture in which it is formed. The products may be isolated by adding alkali metal hydroxide or carbonate, followed by extraction, distillation or mechanical separation. Typical products are t-butylamine, 1,1,3,3 - tetramethylbutylamine, 1 - methylcyclohexylamine and 2 - phenyl - isopropylamine. In examples: (1) N-t-octylformamide and 30 per cent sulphuric acid are refluxed for 2 hours and t-octylamine is isolated by distillation; (2) isobutene is passed into an aqueous mixture of sodium cyanide and sulphuric acid and the mixture is heated to 50 DEG to 55 DEG C., whereafter N-t-butylformamide separates as an upper layer on standing; the mixture is then heated to boiling under reflux for 1 hour to hydrolyse the N-t-butylformamide to t-butylamine; (3) commercial diisobutene (2 : 4 : 4 - trimethylpentene - 1 and 2,4,4 - trimethylpentene-2) sodium cyanide, water and sulphuric acid are heated to 50-55 DEG C. to give N - t - octylformide which is then hydrolysed to t-octylamine by boiling under reflux; (4) N-t-octylformamide is hydrolysed in presence of hydrochloric acid; (5) 1-methylcyclohexene is treated as in (3) to give 1-methylcyclohexylamine; (6) N-t-octylformamide is hydrolysed using oxalic acid solution.
