Abstract
Hydrogenation of 3-(dimethylamino)propionitrile over palladium catalysts wa s studied. Besides the expected amines, N,N,N'N'-tetramethylpropane-1,3-dia mine, N,N-dimethyl-N'-propylpropane-1,2-diamine, and N,N-bis[3-(dimethylami no)propyl]propylamine were found. Reaction pathways of their formation were discussed. Effects of reaction conditions, type of catalyst, and addition of ammonia or an amine into the charge on the hydrogenation selectivity wer e studied.
