2-(3-cyanopropyl)pyridine (14.6 g) in dry ether (100 ml) is added dropwise to a stirred suspension of lithium aluminium hydride (9.5 g) in dry ether (300 ml). The mixture is heated under reflux for 3 hours, cooled and treated successively with water, aqueous sodium hydroxide and water. Extraction with chloroform, followed by fractionation affords 2-(4-aminobutyl)pyridine (6.7 g), b.p. 100°-101° C/1.0 mm.
