Abstract

Monotriethanolammonium salts of N-acylated N-carboxyethylglycine were obtained. Acid chlorides were used in the acylation reaction. The products contained about 25% of fatty acid under acylation conditions, which resulted from the adopted synthesis conditions. Triethanolammonium salts of N-acyl-N-carboxyethylglycine offered good surface active properties — these were confirmed in tests of standard detergent formulations, which were compared to those of corresponding commercial products.

Kurzfassung

Monotriethanolammoniumsalze von n-acyliertem N-Carboxyethylglycin wurden dargestellt. Für die Acylierungsreaktion wurden Säurechloride verwendet. Die Produkte enthalten etwa 25% an Fettsäuren unter Acylierungsbedingungen, die aus den angenommenen Synthesebedingungen resultieren. Triethanolammoniumsalze von N-Acyl-N-carboxyethylglycin bieten gute Obflächenaktivitätseigenschaften, die in Tests mit Standardwaschmittelformulierungen im Vergleich mit entsprechenden kommerziellen Produkten bestätigt wurden.

Dr. Janusz Nowicki (born 1954) graduated in 1978 from Faculty of Chemistry at Technical University of Wrocław. From 1980 he worked at Institute of Heavy Organic Synthesis “Blachownia” as specialist in organic synthesis. In 1992 he obtained PhD at Technical University of Lodz. His special field of research covers the synthesis of speciality organic chemicals.

Prof. Jerzy Wasilewski (born 1934) graduated in 1958 from Faculty of Chemistry at Technical University of Lodz. Then he worked at Institute of Heavy Organic Synthesis “Blachownia” He obtained his PhD in 1966 and Doctor Habilis in 1971. Since 1983 he has been full professor at this Institute. His area of scientific activity is heterogenous catalysis.
