METHOD FOR PRODUCING AMINES

摘要

The invention relates to a process for preparing aromatic amines by catalytic hydrogenation of the corresponding nitro compounds, in particular for preparing toluenediamine by hydrogenation of dinitrotoluene, wherein hydrogenation catalysts in which a mixture of nickel, palladium and an additional element selected from the group consisting of cobalt, iron, vanadium, manganese, chromium, platinum, iridium, gold, bismuth, molybdenum, selenium, tellurium, tin and antimony is present as active component on a support are used.
