Abstract

Color stabilized isocyanates, particularly methylene-bridged aromatic isocyanates [methylenebis(phenyl isocyanate) and prepolymers thereof], are derived by incorporating in the isocyanate a color stabilizing amount of a compound of the formula ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 =alkyl, aryl; R.sub.2 =alkyl; R.sub.3 =H, alkyl or aralkyl; and R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 taken together represent the residue of an oxazoline or oxazine. 2-Ethyloxazoline is a preferred color stabilizing compound. The above compounds can also be used to discharge undesirable colors which have developed in such isocyanates on storage.
