  • Publication number: 20120101303
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for preparing triethylenetetramine substituted by at least one methyl group (Me-TETA or methyl-substituted TETA compounds). Me-TETA is prepared by hydrogenating biscyanomethylimidazolidine (BCMI) in the presence of a catalyst. The present invention further relates to methyl-substituted TETA compounds as such. The present invention further relates to the use of methyl-substituted TETA compounds as a reactant or intermediate in the production of, for example, coatings or adhesives.

  • Publication number: 20110257431
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for preparing aminocarboxylates, proceeding from amines, by employing a reaction sequence composed of ethoxylation to amino alcohols and subsequent oxidative dehydrogenation to the corresponding aminocarboxylates, especially the alkali metal or alkaline earth metal salts of the complexing agents MGDA (methylglycinediacetic acid), EDTA (ethylenediaminetetra-acetic acid) and GLDA (glutamic acid diacetic acid) or the free acids thereof.
