  • Process for preparing fatty peroxyacid precursors having amide moieties in the fatty chain
    Patent number: 5166407
    Abstract: A process for preparing precursors for amido containing organic peracids is disclosed wherein a diester of a dibasic acid is reacted with an amine to provide a mono amido ester carboxylic acid ester. The reaction is conducted in the presence of a catalytic amount of a carboxylic acid whereby the rate of reaction to form the mono amido ester of the dibasic acid is increased. The esters are converted to acids highly desirable as precursers for peracids useful as bleaches in laundry detergents.
