Abstract: The present invention describes a process for the preparation of ethyldimethylamine and triethylamine with the following steps: (i) reaction of a mixture of diethylamine and dimethylamine with ethylene in the presence of a catalyst from the group of alkali metal dimethylamides, alkali metal diethylamides and alkali metal hydrides (ii) removal of the catalyst (iii) distillation separation of the resulting mixture in triethylamine and ethyldimethylamine and optionally diethylamine and dimethylamine (iv) optional return of the catalyst and of the starting amines to the reaction. The process according to the invention permits the coproduction of ethyldimethylamine and diethylamine in a simple process.

Abstract: A process for preparing stable dry powders which are insoluble in hot water and which contain fat-soluble vitamins and/or carotenoids, which comprises the following steps:a) preparing an aqueous dispersion containing essentially these fat-soluble active substances, film-forming colloids and reducing sugars,b) converting this dispersion into dry vitamin and/or carotenoid products in powder form andc) thermally curing the powder at from 60.degree. to 180.degree. C.,wherein gelatin in combination with one or more organic amino compounds which are free or bonded in the manner of a salt and which contain a basic primary amino group and, in addition, either another amino group, a hydroxyl group, an alkoxy group or a carboxyl group, and/or in combination with sufficient basic alkali metal or alkaline earth metal compound for the dispersion to have a pH of from 7.5 to 10, is used as film-forming colloid, and the dry powders obtainable via this process are described.
