Abstract

Primary amino alcohols react with CO in the presence of mercuric acetate at 100–200° and a pressure of 100–150 atm to give the corresponding N-(hydroxyalkyl)formamides in a yield of 1.4–2.5 M/M of reacted Hg(OCOCH2)3. Morpholine under analogous conditions forms the corresponding formyl derivative and the urea derivative in a 1.2–5∶1 ratio, while cyclohexylamine forms the same derivatives in an ∼0.7 ∶1 ratio.
