Disclosed is a process for the preparation of primary, secondary and tertiary amines via a catalytic hydrogenation of unsubstituted, N-substituted, and N,N-disubstituted amides. The amide is led, together with an auxiliary amine, in vaporised form in a hydrogen containing gas flow over the catalyst. The process can be carried out at relatively low pressures, between 2 and 50 bars, using typical hydrogenation catalysts like CuCr-type catalysts. The amine is obtained with high yield and high selectivity. The process can be carried out in a continuous fixed bed reactor. ® KIPO & WIPO 2008 |
