N-Benzylbis(2-cyanoethyl)amine → N~1~-(3-Aminopropyl)-N~1~-benzylpropane-1,3-diamine

Participants

Reaction Steps

8.53 g of N,N-bis(2-cyanoethyl)benzylamine, 0.72 g of Raney Co and 100 mL of methanol were charged in an autoclave and a hydrogenation reaction was carried out at an initial hydrogen pressure of 9.0 MPa at 100° C. for 1 hour. After the catalyst was removed by filtration, the obtained filtrate was concentrated to dryness to give 8.69 g of the title compound as a pale yellow oil.
