摘要 |
Oil-soluble alkane hydroxy amine derivatives of alkenes containing at least ten carbon atoms, particularly low molecular weight unsaturated polymers of propene and butene, are useful as chemical intermediates and as additives in petroleum products. The amine derivatives are produced by nitrating the alkene with nitrogen tetraoxide under non-oxidizing conditions to form the corresponding nitro-nitrito alkane and reducing the nitro-nitrito alkane with hydrogen in the presence of a metallic hydrogenation catalyst.
