SUPPORTED CATALYST FOR REDUCTIVE AMINATION REACTION AND PREPARATION METHOD OF POLYETHERAMINE COMPOUND USING THE CATALYST

摘要

The present invention relates to a supported catalyst for a reductive amination reaction and a preparation method of a polyetheramine compound using the same. The supported catalyst according to the present invention can maintain a balance of dehydrogenation and hydrogenation reactions and can maintain catalytic activity, particularly, even in presence of moisture, thereby exhibiting high amine conversion rate. Therefore, the supported catalyst can be useful for a continuous manufacturing process of a polyetheramine compound through reductive amination and for a batch-type manufacturing process regardless of presence of moisture. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the supported catalyst for a reductive amination reaction comprises active components supported on a carrier. The active components include: at least one element selected from the group consisting of rhodium (Rh), ruthenium (Ru), and platinum (Pt); cobalt (Co); and yttrium (Y).
