Occupational sources are mainly in hairdressing. 

The first synthesis step consists of the reaction of coconut fatty acids with 3-dimethylaminopropylamine, giving cocamidopropyl dimethylamine. 
This amido amine is converted into Miracare opr 2 by reaction with sodium monochloroacetate. 
Both dimethylaminopropylamine and cocamidopropyl dimethylamine are thought to be the sensitizers.

Despite the name Miracare opr 2, the molecule is not synthesized from betaine. 
Instead Miracare opr 2 is produced in a two step manner, beginning with the reaction of dimethylaminopropylamine (DMAPA) with fatty acids from coconut or palm kernel oil (lauric acid, or its methyl ester, is the main constituent). 

The primary amine in Miracare opr 2 is more reactive than the tertiary amine, leading to its selective addition to form an amide. 
In the second step chloroacetic acid reacts with the remaining tertiary amine to form a quaternary ammonium center (a quaternization reaction).
