Abstract: A process of producing N-acyl amino acid based surfactants of Formula I, wherein, R is selected from C6 to C22 alkyl group, R1 is selected from H, C1 to C4 alkyl, R2 is selected from all groups on ? carbon of natural amino acids, R3 is selected from COOX, CH2—SO3X, X is selected from Li+, Na+ or K+. The process comprising steps of: A) preparing fatty acid chlorides by halogenating fatty acids with either phosgene or thionyl chloride in the presence of catalytic amount of same or other N-acyl amino acid surfactant of Formula I or anhydrides of same surfactant; and B) reacting fatty acid chloride of step (A) with an amino acid in the presence of a base.

Abstract: An aqueous composition comprising solution of a betaine of the following general Formula I is disclosed Formula I in which R is an alkyl group of coconut fatty acids, preferably hydrogenated coconut fatty acids, or a fatty acid mixture which, on the average, corresponds to coconut fatty acids, wherein the solution has a solids content of at least 45% by weight, a pH of 4.5 to 8, an amidoamine content of not more than 1% by weight, and a free fatty acid content less than 1% by weight, an N-acyl ?-aminoacids content between 0.5 to 3% by weight and 0 to 4% by weight of glycerin, based on the solution.

Abstract: An efficient, simple, high yielding, eco-friendly process for the manufacture of tosylates quaternary ammonium salts of cinnamidoalkylamines and/or benzamidoalkylamines (Formula I) has been described. These compounds are substantive UV-absorbers. They are useful in making fabric care products and personal care products. The scope of this methodology has been demonstrated by converting water soluble organic sunscreen quaternary halides to their corresponding tosylates of Formula VI.
