Lipophilic Complexones, Part 3. Synthesis of Polyamines Derived from 2-Alkyl-1,3-propanediols and 2,2-Bis(hydroxymethyl)alkanols

Article abstract of DOI:10.1007/BF00799031

Lipophilic di-, tri-, tetra-, and hexaamines were synthesized from 2-alkyl-1,3-propanediols and 2,2-bis(hydroxymethyl)alkanols.The alcohols were converted into the sulfonate esters which were substituted with ethylenediamine or sodium azide.The azides were directly reduced to give amines.Also dioxyethylenated 2-octadecyl-1,3-propanediol yielded the corresponding amine.Some amines were converted into the salicylidene derivatives. - Keywords: Complexone; Polyamines
