Abstract (en)

[origin: DE19944418A1] The invention relates to a method for producing fatty acid amides from fatty acid alkyl esters and ammonia in the presence of a catalyst. According to this method, substantially water and fatty acid-free esters are used and the catalyst is a compound of tetravalent tin that is soluble in the reaction mixture. The method is carried out at low pressure, with short reaction times and to a large extent, without the formation of by-products.
