[The study of the microwave reaction of stearic acid and pentyl amine].
In this study, the microwave reaction of stearic acid and pentyl amine was investigated by FTIR spectroscopy. The results indicated that after mixing the two reactants together, pentyl ammonium stearate was created and it formed acid-salt structure with the stearic acid remained. The results also demonstrated that under microwave radiation, the pentyl ammonium stearate could be not only decomposed, but also dehydrated to form stearic pentyl amide. It suggested that the microwave radiation was an ideal technique to make this chemical reaction much faster and much more thorough.
