Procedure

A mixture of 0.059 mmol RuHCl(H2)(PCy3)2, 2.87 mmol dodecanedinitrile, 5 mL water and 35 mL toluene was stirred in a Fisher-Porter tube at 80° C. under 860 kPa H2. After 22 hours, gc analysis showed that the dinitrile was completely converted and the product, 1,12-dodecanediamine, formed in 85% yield.
