I can get large amounts of this etanoloamine, but I cannot find any intersting use for this substance. Some kind of yperite could be made but I am not interested with it. I tried to find anything about
making N-methylmorpholine from this, much more interesting than substrate, but no information I can find. May be you have any suggestions ?

That's funny. There are a bunch of opioid freaks that would, for some stupid reason, go crazy for it. I just hope it is not that easily available to them as well. That would not be very wise.

The formula you show is not ethanolamine however. Ehtanolamine is HOCH2CH2NH2.

Nicodem, which of the two would be useful? In what way? Ethanolamine isn't that hard to come by.

This compound is one of the commonly used ethanolamines as
MEA, DEA, DGA, MDEA....
In this case it is MDEA : N- Methyl DiEthanolAmine.
As I see, nobody knows how to cyclize MDMA to N-methylmorpholine.....:(
