BICYCLIC AMINE CATALYSTS

摘要

New catalysts are made available for the production of polyurethane and polyepoxide resins being derivates of 2-azabicyclot¢2.2.1!hept-5-enes and 2-azabicyclot¢2.2.1!-heptanes substituted in 2- and optionally in 3-position. Also provided is a process for preparing same by reacting cyclopentadiene with salts of strong acids of ammonia or of primary amines and aldehydes and, optionally, by subsequent catalytic hydrogenation of the reaction product.
