Abstract

Novel carboxylic acid metal salt/amine complexes are prepared by reacting 1 mol of a carboxylic acid metal salt of the formula EQU (A.sup..crclbar.).sub.2 ME.sup.2+ in which A.sup..crclbar. is the anion of a carboxylic acid which contains polar substituents or radicals and in particular contains an amide or imide grouping, such as a halogenoacetic acid, nitrilo-, cyano- or ureido-acetic acid, monoamidosuccinic acid, succinimidyl- or maleimidyl-alkanecarboxylic acid, benzenesulphonic acid or pyrrolidone-5-carboxylic acid, and Me.sup.2+ is a divalent metal cation, with 1 mol of a diamine of the formula EQU R.sub.1 --NH--R--NH--R.sub.2 in which R is an aliphatic radical having not more than 7 C atoms or is a cycloaliphatic radical and R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are hydrogen, alkyl having 1 to 4 C atoms, cyclohexyl, benzyl, 2-aminoethyl or 3-aminopropyl, in a polar organic solvent and in the temperature range from 25.degree. to 200.degree. C., to give complex compounds. The novel complex compounds are suitable as catalytic curing agents for epoxide resins.
