Synthesis of hydrocarbyl amines.

摘要

This invention relates to a process for producing long chain alkyl amines from polyolefins by reacting (a) a polyolefin having a molecular weight in the range of 330-2000 with ozone in the presence of a solvent, (b) reacting the ozonolysis product from (a) without separation and/or isolation of the carbonyl compounds formed therein with a primary hydrocarbyl amines to form an imine, (c) hydrogenation the imine from step (b) to an amine in the presence of a hydrogenation catalyst, and (d) recovering the long chain alkyl amine from the hydrogenation products formed in step (c). The amines so produced are useful gasoline and lube oil additives.
