Abstract

A process for preparing 2-methylene-1,3-propanediamide is disclosed which comprises providing a solution of a novel compound of the formula ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2, and R.sub.3 can each independently be lower alkyl of from 1 to 10 carbon atoms, aryl, alkaryl, aralkyl, or halogen and X is an electron-accepting leaving group, in an inert, aprotic organic solvent, and subjecting the compound in solution to .beta.-elimination reaction conditions effective to eliminate the silyl group ##STR2## and the electron-accepting leaving group EQU --X from the compound to form a double bond between those carbon atoms to which the silyl group and the electron-accepting leaving group were bonded, thereby forming 2-methylene-1,3-propanediamide. 2-Methylene-1,3-propanediamide is useful in preparing polymers which can be used in preparing coating compositions, films, and filaments.
