Example 1 was repeated using 2-methyl-2-propyl-4-cyanobutanal as the starting material. 33.5 g per hour of 2-methyl-2-propyl-4-cyanobutanal (purity 88.9%, 29.8 g, 0.195 mol) and 1400 ml (840 g, 49.4 mol) per hour of liquid ammonia were pumped at 250 bar and 60° C. through the imination reactor. The product stream was subsequently passed through the hydrogenation reactor from bottom to top at 250 bar and 120° C. while simultaneously passing 100 l(S.T.P.)/h (4.5 mol) of hydrogen through the reactor. The product stream was decompressed to atmospheric pressure and NH3 was removed by distillation. The product from 37.5 hours was separated by fractional distillation on a 30 cm packed column (3 mm glass rings), giving 277.0 g of 3-methyl-3-propylpiperidine (b.p.=46° C./2 mmHg) and 842.1 g of 2-methyl-2-propylpentane-1,5-diamine (b.p.=78°- 81° C./2 mmHg). The diamine yield was 72.9% of theory.
