Dodecyldimethylamine ( DDA ) is a tertiary fatty amine with a linear C 12 ( dodecyl ) carbon chain and two methyl groups on the nitrogen atom. The on lauric acid particularly rich (lauric acid) plant oils coconut oil and palm oil are renewable raw materials for the oleochemical synthesis of lauryldimethylamine, which in turn important starting material for surfactants surfactants and antibacterial effective quat are.
Occurrence and representation
Dodecyldimethylamine is not a naturally occurring compound, but can be obtained from functional n - dodecane derivatives in different ways on a laboratory and industrial scale. Syntheses from dodecyl bromide and dimethylamine or dodecylamine and dimethyl sulfate are more suitable for small quantities, while the Eschweiler-Clarke methylation of dodecylamine with formic acid - formaldehyde mixture supplies N, N -dimethylaminododecane with a yield of approx. 90%.
The primary amine laurylamine can also be reacted with formalin and hydrogen on a nickel contact to form N, N- dimethyldodecylamine (93.6% yield).
Dodecanol reacts with dimethylamine and hydrogen on a copper chromite contact to form DDA in 95% yield.
For industrial production, synthesis routes are relevant that start directly from the fractionated saponification products of vegetable oils, i.e. H. start from lauric acid or lauric acid methyl ester . Direct amidation of lauric acid with dimethylamine initially yields the salt dimethylammonium laurate, which converts to N, N- dimethyldodecanamide by splitting off water when heated .
Instead of lauric acid, the methyl ester can also be used, as is obtained in biodiesel production by transesterification of the vegetable oils with methanol and separation by distillation as pure methyl laurate (or a C 12 / C 14 mixture rich in lauric acid). The carboxamide can be obtained from the ester in yields> 90% with dimethylamine and sodium methoxide as catalyst at significantly lower temperatures (approx. 100 ° C) than from the carboxylic acid. Another advantage of conducting the process at the lowest possible temperatures is the reduction or avoidance of yellowing and, in particular, odor formation.
The N, N -dimethyldodecanamide can be hydrogenated practically quantitatively to DDA on nickel or industrially on copper chromite contacts.
properties
N, N -dimethylaminododecane is a colorless liquid with an ammoniacal-fish-like odor, which mainly comes from contamination with triethylamine , which can be removed practically completely by heating in a vacuum or passing nitrogen through.
Applications
The amine dodecyldimethylamine and its salts with mineral acids, such as. B. phosphoric acid or sulfuric acid are used as corrosion inhibitors , asphalt emulsifiers, flotation aids , additives for cooling lubricants and drilling fluids . The free amine is the starting material for surface-active compounds with different functional (cationic, nonionic and amphoteric) head groups, such as. B.
Quats from DDA
Quaternization of dodecyl to as Quat designated Dodecyltrimethylammoniumsalz can with alkylating agents such. B. methyl chloride , methyl bromide , dimethyl sulfate or dimethyl carbonate can be carried out.
The reaction with excess gaseous methyl chloride takes place in an autoclave at an elevated temperature, the quaternary ammonium chloride being formed in quantitative yield as a colorless powder. The reaction in the other, liquid alkylating agents gives the corresponding C 12 ammonium salts, which are readily water-soluble, but mostly hygroscopic. Dodecyltrimethylammonium chloride (CAS # 112-00-5) is used as a foam stabilizer , phase transfer catalyst , antistatic and especially bacteriostatic .
Amine oxides from DDA
With 35% hydrogen peroxide , N, N- dimethylaminododecane is oxidized to the amine oxide dodecyldimethylamine oxide, which has surface-active properties and is used in shampoos and cleaning agents because of its synergistic effects with anionic and nonionic surfactants.
Betaines from DDA
Carboxymethylation of dodecyldimethylamine with monochloroacetic acid MCA or sodium monochloroacetate SMCA in an ethanol / water mixture 1: 1 provides the amphoteric surfactant dodecyldimethylbetaine (laurylbetaine) (CAS # 683-10-3), which is used as a foam stabilizer in baby shampoos because of its low skin and eye irritation and enhancers, as dispersants , e.g. B. is used for pesticides , as well as thickening and wetting agents.
Lauryl betaine - as a derivative of the amino acid glycine , or betaine , in which a methylene group by a C 12 - alkyl group is replaced (blue) - not to be confused with lauramidopropyl betaine , wherein the C 12 - acyl group (red) comes from the lauric acid. The amidopropyl betaine is obtained by reaction of lauric acid with 3-aminopropyldimethylamine to form the amidoamine and subsequent carboxymethylation with MCA.
Sulfobetaines from DDA
Sultones , such as B. propane react with lauryldimethylamine the corresponding sulfobetaine Laurylsulfobetain (CAS # 14933-08-5), the membrane proteins largely without denaturation solubilized .
While the carboxylate group of the amino acid derivative lauryl betaine protonates to the carboxy group in acid (pH <5) and the betaine becomes a cationic surfactant , the corresponding sulfobetaine remains completely dissociated even at a strongly acidic pH , i.e. it retains its zwitterionic character.
Hydroxysultaine from DDA
An additional hydroxyl group and thus an even more hydrophilic head group than sulfobetaines have hydroxysultaines, as they are, for. B. in the reaction of the sodium salt of 1-chloro-2-hydroxypropanesulfonic acid CHPS (by addition of sodium hydrogen sulfite NaHSO 3 to epichlorohydrin ) with N, N -dimethyldodecylamine to lauryl hydroxysultaine (CAS # 13197-76-7).
Hydroxysultaines are neutral and very mild amphoteric surfactants in water, which foam strongly even in hard water or salt water and are stable over a wide pH range. They are well tolerated and biodegradable with all tenside classes. As so-called co-surfactants, hydroxysultaines allow less use of standard surfactants and, because of their viscosity-increasing effect, avoid the addition of sodium chloride.
