  • Patent number: 5770771
    Abstract: Continuously fed to and mixed in a first reactor are (i) a preformed mixture of primary hydrocarbyl monoamine, tertiary amine and liquid inert organic solvent, and (ii) thiophosphoryl chloride while removing heat of reaction to maintain the reaction temperature in the range of about -20.degree. C. to about +50.degree. C. A reaction mixture containing N-hydrocarbylaminothiophosphoryl dichloride is formed. Ammonia and an effluent stream from the first reactor are continuously fed to and mixed in a second reactor in proportions of at least about 16 moles, of ammonia per mole of N-hydrocarbylaminothiophosphoryl dichloride that produce a reaction mixture containing N-hydrocarbylthiophosphoric triamide, and that keep in solution ammonium chloride co-product formed in the reaction.
