NOTES
May, 1944 zaldi-morpholine, prepared according to M. Zief and J. P. Mason,2 were condensed with a variety of alkyl bromides, such as n-butyl, nheptyl, n-octyl, tetradecyl and hexadecyl bromides, to yield the corresponding symmetrical di-morpholinium di-bromides possessing the following structures CHzCHz

The melting points were determined by means of a chromelalumel thermocouple and were accurate to well within 0.1O Melting points rather than freezing points were measured since the mixtures were found to supercool to a marked degree. f

Procedure To 0.01 mole of methylene- or benzal-di-morpholinewas added 0.02 mole of the respective alkyl bromide and 11 ml. of 95y0 ethyl alcohol. The mixture was then gently refluxed for four hours. The reaction material when solid, or otherwise after removal of the alcohol by evaporation under reduced pressure, was crystallized from ethyl acetate; yields, Kb70OJo.
The observations are collected in Table I and are represented graphically in Fig. 1.
