Aminoethylethanolamine or AEEA is an organic base used in the industrial manufacture of fuel and oil additives, chelating agents, and surfactants.
Synthesis
[edit]AEEA may be produced by the ethoxylation of ethylenediamine in the presence of water. Multiple ethoxylations result in undesirable byproducts, so the reaction is conducted with an excess of diamine.[2]
