2,4-dihydroxy-N-(3-hydroxypropyl)-3,3-dimethylbutanamide

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: In a two liter reaction flask, fitted with a stirrer, thermometer, reflux condenser, heating mantle and a feed funnel, 205 grams of deionized water was charged. 205 grams (1 mole) of d,l- panthenol was charged into the water and stirred until dissolved. In a separate stirred one liter vessel, 852 grams (1 mole) of 50% aqueous QUAB 426 (3-Chloro-2-hydroxypropyl stearyl dimethylammonium chloride) was reacted with approximately 80 grams (1 mole) of 50% aqueous sodium hydroxide solution, to form a solution of QUAB 393 (2,3-Epoxypropyl stearyl dimethyl ammonium chloride), to a pH of ~ 9.5. The batch was heated to 50°-60° C., and the QUAB 393 solution was added to the panthenol solution through the feed funnel. The pH of the reaction mixture was checked, and adjusted to ~ 9.5 with a small additional amount of 50% sodium hydroxide solution, as required. The batch was then agitated at 50°-60° C. for a four hour period to assure complete reaction. The pH of the batch was then adjusted to 6.5-8.0 with a small amount of lactic acid. The resultant product was a clear yellow solution, containing approximately 50% solids, of which approximately 43% was stearyl dimethyl quaternized panthenol. An in vitro efficacy test of this material versus a 50% panthenol solution was tested for uptake on human hair swatches and showed an approximate 27% greater uptake than the unquaternized panthenol. Adjusting the results for concentration of active material, the stearyl dimethyl quaternized panthenol showed an approximate 31% greater uptake than the unquaternized panthenol. In a two liter reaction flask fitted with a stirrer thermometer, reflux condenser was charged until dissolved In a separate stirred one liter vessel
